How do you replace the Smart thermostat?

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Thermostat

To replace the Smart thermostat, you need to open the engine compartment and locate the thermostat, which is located immediately under the windshield in the central part. Next, you have to go and remove the oil delivery valve, after having removed its four fixing bolts. At this point it will be possible to unscrew the bolts that fix the thermostat, to which the suction pipes are also connected. Therefore, it will also be necessary to unscrew the bolts located on the other end, in the final part of the suction pipes. When all the bolts have been loosened, it will be possible to go and take out the pipes and the thermostat, replacing them.
