Reply With QuoteI am needing to do a cooling system service on my M60.
Haven't looked to see if I have the plastic or aluminum, it may have been changed by the PO. If not, where did you source the aluminum housing from?

Do aluminum housings fit differently?
The bentley shows the o-ring fitted on the inside of the thermostat as seen on the left.
I replaced my plastic housing with aluminum and the only way it seemed to seal was on the outside as seen to the right (this is in the water pump; housing has not yet been installed).
Is the aluminum housing designed differently?

the aluminum is a direct replacment for the plastic, the o-ring goes on top of the thermostat
