I'm looking to fit the Prado 82 C thermostat, as despite having fitted a new viscous fan unit, mine is still getting a bit too hot (read over 115c) when towing or close to 100C on fast M-way journeys (and before you suggest, it's already got a new radiator and an ATF oil cooler fitted). Just checked with our local Toyota main dealer and the part number usually quoted for this - 90916-03121 - comes up as a bottom radiator hose, not a thermostat.
Can anyone whose bought one shed any light on the part number or if there has been a change of part number since the original information was provided, or even if there is another source for them apart from the main dealer route? Main dealer can't do a search as their new all singing, all dancing computer system either needs the part number or a chassis number to search. Just trying something like "Prado thermostat" doesn't work. Isn't technology wonderfull!!!
Thanks
