Detailed Description

The Motorad TA3100 thermostat housing assembly is built for cooling-system service where accurate temperature response matters. Its copper case and wax compound construction, as described by the manufacturer, supports quick reaction to coolant temperature changes, while the standard replacement design helps restore proper thermostat housing function. This part cross-references 0013AT and 256002GGA0 for the same application.

Fits 2016-2020 Kia Sorento, N/A. Fits 2017-2018 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport, N/A. The TA3100 is a fitment-based solution for vehicles that require a thermostat housing assembly with the listed port and connector configuration. Motorad TA3100 is also referenced by the same part number for catalog matching and service lookup.

What It Helps Address

• Coolant temperature control that is slow to respond
• Thermostat housing service on a worn or damaged assembly
• Seal-related coolant leakage at the housing interface
• Connector or terminal mismatch during replacement
• Cooling-system performance issues tied to thermostat housing wear
