"It does, yeah. It seems that access to the bottom bolt of the thermostat housing is a bit tight and involves moving the power steering components, aux belt, etc. out of the way, something I don't have a problem with; it's the putting things back together that gets me nervous!"
I understand what you mean. Its one of those jobs where you just have to take your time or even take photos so you have a reference point to go back to. The thermostat's on the euro 5 models (2009 onwards) are a right pain! Some genuis thought it would be a good idea to put the thermostat in the most awkward place, literally at the back of the engine! You have to remove the battery, air box, throttle body, the EGR valve, some of the wiring loom & then you'll see the part! So much so, a dealership will charge around £300-£400 to replace it!
