problem #1

May 012015

9-5 SE 2.3L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 170,000 miles

After replacing bad thermostat and replacing old coolant, real bad leak developed at this bypass valve. (mud was probably sealing it) My girlfriend was still daily driving this car and I was filling up the coolant with water every day. I ordered the part but the car overheated and died before the part came in.
