Engine and connector differences matter
Cooling parts can change with engine option, transmission, air-conditioning specification and production period. Modern thermostat housings and water pumps may include sensors, actuators or electronic connections.
Submit the VIN, engine details and a photo or part number where possible. AutoSourceSA then sources a suitable option and confirms price, condition and availability in the quote.
Information to include
- VIN, make, model and year
- Engine size or engine code
- Part name and exact position
- Part number and photos of connections
- Automatic or manual transmission where relevant
Practical sourcing for cooling components
Component identified
The exact part and vehicle configuration are captured before supplier enquiries.
Electrical differences checked
Connector and sensor details are important for electronic pumps, fans and housings.
Quote before order
Nothing is presented as fixed stock or price; the exact offer is confirmed first.

Cooling-system sourcing questions
Which cooling parts can I request?
Radiators, water pumps, thermostats and housings, fans, expansion tanks, hoses and selected oil coolers can be requested.
Why do you ask for the engine code?
Different engines in the same model can use different pumps, housings, sensors and radiators.
Should I continue driving an overheating vehicle?
Seek professional assistance. Continued overheating may cause severe engine damage; AutoSourceSA’s role is parts sourcing, not diagnosis.
