Model: Renault Clio MK 3, Clio 3, Clio III - Years 2005-2013
Part: Thermostat

In this short and simple guide, we will see the process of disassembling and replacing the thermostat of the engine cooling liquid of the Renault Clio. First, lift the car and start disconnecting the engine cooling liquid hose, letting the fluid drain into a container for about ten minutes; then, unscrew the thermostat fixing screws to remove it, as shown in the video. At this point, install the new thermostat, reconnecting the coolant pipe, and finally top up with the new antifreeze liquid!
