2005 thermostat housing leak (with photo)
Hey guys, i know this is a common problem because of the cheap plastic
But I'm not sure if the housing is actually broken, or if i just need a sealant and gasket.
As you can see, these two pieces aren't staying togethor... so I was wondering if it's just a sealant/glue that's worn out...

The only way to find out is to remove it and examine it. It could be the o ring or the housing could be cracked. I have seen both. They also make an aluminum one now. Check Rockauto.com
