Do you mean thermostat with housing, as the thermostat is crimped into the housing, Colin.

Hi Colin - Yes I believe I require the thermostat with housing. Not having owned an Alfa, I used the forum to deduce the possibility that I require the thermostat with housing. The 156 Selespeed temp gauge does not show an operating temperature that you would expect to see in a car that operates normally.

The car takes longer to warm up, i.e. 30 minutes of driving and only then the needle moves marginally.... the heater takes a long time to blow heat....

I understand that I may require this part however it could also be a temperature sensor? Based on the above, what do you think the problem is?
