 Indeed, Mike, but that is not the way the mass-market car industry operates. That's why we have been taught buy new - scrap old mentality.

I was surprised that cooler could be ordered separately, especially when even the manufacturer didn't predict code for that.

 All, I've just watched the latest YouTube edition from LRtime of their 2.7 Land Rover engine rebuild and he's used an Elring O-ring on the cooler to 'stat housing.

Part No 569.390 with a size of 19,6 x 3,6 mm. A quick online search returns a very reasonable price of £1.48 plus delivery.

This ring is listed as used on many other cars but not the C6 or Land Rover!

I'll be ordering a few to hold ready for the next 'stat replacement
