When thermostat coolant performance matters, the FEBI BILSTEIN 196988 delivers — built to the same dimensional and material standards as the original part it replaces. The part is built to the following specification: Opening Temperature [°C]: 88 °C, Weight [kg]: 0, 07 kg, Outer Diameter [mm]: 54 mm. Each dimension is checked against the OEM reference to ensure the component seats and functions correctly first time. This part supersedes original equipment references: 02100071, 1389402, 1446127M91, 1446155M91 and 59 more. Matching these numbers confirms a like-for-like replacement with no loss of function.
