Product Details

Motorad’s Integrated Housing Thermostat line focuses on complete thermostat housing assemblies that match OE service requirements. This Motorad 678-221 unit uses a copper case and wax compound for responsive temperature control as coolant temperatures change, while the integrated housing design helps simplify replacement on the specified Mini Cooper, Mini Cooper Countryman, and Mini Cooper Paceman applications. This part cross-references Dorman - OE Solutions 902-812 and Continental 49412 for the same application.

Compatible With 2013 Mini Cooper, 2013 Mini Cooper Countryman, 2013 Mini Cooper Paceman, and 2006-2009 Mini Cooper. The Motorad 678-221 is also referenced by interchange numbers 67821 and HT221-876.

Common Cooling System Issues

  • Engine running too cool or too hot due to thermostat control problems
  • Coolant leaks at the thermostat housing or seal interface
  • Air trapped in the cooling system after thermostat service
  • Temperature regulation concerns on OE-specified 221F applications
  • Housing wear or cracking on integrated thermostat assemblies

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle build date and adapter lead requirements before installation, especially on 2013 Mini Cooper, Mini Cooper Countryman, and Mini Cooper Paceman applications noted with possible adapter lead replacement. Confirm the OE-specified 221F temperature rating and inspect the sealing surfaces before assembly. Use the included rubber seal and follow the vehicle service procedure for bleeding air from the cooling system through the bleeder hole and jiggle pin.

Quality Assurance

Motorad manufactures this thermostat housing assembly with OEM-quality materials and safety standards as an OE supplier. It is built to OE specifications and processes for demanding automotive cooling systems, with materials selected for consistent temperature response and durable service.
