Replaces OEM Part Number 06E121111AL – Audi 3.0T Thermostat

VERSION 2 NOW AVAILABLE
We've made two major upgrades to further refine our CNC-machined thermostat housing:

  1. Resolved Overcooling in Cold Climates – Version 2 addresses the overcooling issue reported by some customers, particularly in colder environments. If you purchased a Version 1 unit, contact us and we’ll send you a free retrofit kit.

  2. Improved Screw Placement – Assembly screws have been repositioned outside the O-ring groove to eliminate the risk of hardware falling into the engine block in the rare event of loosening.

The GPS Billet Aluminum Thermostat Housing is a significant upgrade over the factory plastic version, delivering enhanced durability, reliability, and performance. Anodized and CNC-machined for precision, this housing is designed to last.

Available in Two Options:

  • Thermostat Housing Only
    Ideal for those using their own thermostat insert (e.g., Mishimoto Racing Thermostat). Click HERE for the Thermostat Housing Only install video. 

  • Complete Thermostat Assembly
    Fully pre-assembled and drop-in ready for a hassle-free install.

Great customer service

Placed an order and expected a delivery but unfortunately there was a delay I reached out and they offered to ship another one overnight shipping fee free of charge. Amazing customer service

High Quality

Super stoked with this product, very high quality piece of aluminum. Why would you replace your old plastic thermostat with another plastic thermostat only for it to fail again when you can spend the same money on an aluminum one that you never have to worry about again

Quality part

Very well built! Owner went out of his way to get shipped early due to needing it for appointment at shop. 3k miles on it and no problems! Great alternative to oem plastic housing!
