Detailed Product Overview

This engine coolant thermostat housing is designed as a direct replacement for the stock housing used on 1995-2003 Hyundai Accent and 2004-2006 Dodge Verna models. Dorman 902-5046 follows the original fitment profile so the housing seats correctly in the cooling circuit and supports proper thermostat housing function. It cross-references Motorad CH6046 for the same application.

The metal construction helps the housing withstand extreme temperature changes, which is important in a part exposed to constant heat cycling and coolant flow. The package includes the thermostat housing with gasket, making it a practical choice when replacing a leaking, warped, or corroded housing on a Hyundai Accent or Dodge Verna.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Coolant seepage at the thermostat housing flange
• Cracked or corroded housing surfaces
• Warped sealing face that prevents a proper gasket seal
• Incorrect coolant outlet fitment after prior repair work
• Cooling system leaks around the thermostat housing area

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the outlet port diameter, mounting hole spacing, and housing neck angle before installation. Clean the mating surface thoroughly, inspect the coolant hose connection, and replace damaged fasteners or worn sealing surfaces as needed. This housing does not include a thermostat or bolts, so transfer or source those components separately if required by the vehicle repair.

Fits 1995-2003 Hyundai Accent, N/A. Fits 2004-2006 Dodge Verna, N/A.
