yes the part was OEM from nissan
I’ve had so many replacements fail in all my Nissans over the years that I just get an oem one from a dealer. Never had an oem one shit out yet.
I recently changed my thermostat due to my temp gauge occasionally dancing. The old thermostat appears to be bypassed as theres no actual thermostat in the housing. After putting on a new nissan one and oem gasket i bled the system with a overflow funnel for about 40 minutes until i stopped seeing bubble. Also using peak 50/50. Afterwards my overheating problem has gotten worse i overheat in about 10 minutes. I tried bleeding again and same results.
Since going with the OEM thermostat, my temp gauge has stayed pinned just below the middle of the gauge, even towing campers and heavy loads on hot days.
Only an OEM Thermostat fixed it.
I had this exact issue with 3 aftermarket thermostats that were opening too early. Bought one from Nissan and my temps went back to normal
OEM Nissan, but slightly more conservative with cooling.
Replacing the Thermostat with a OEM part has solved the issue (with coolant flush) from a dealership.
After reinstalling an OEM thermostat, I am very happy to say my high temp issues have been solved!
