The Mercedes-Benz GL450 Thermostat provides the SUV with accurate temperature control, so that the engine does not take long to warm up but never overheats. Relied upon during various years of production, it is a small component between the radiator and the engine block, which detects the heat of the coolant and, in turn, diverts flow to keep the twin-turbo V8 in its optimal power, efficiency and economy range. The first mechanical wax-pellet Thermostats use a basic swelling mechanism that opens a valve in milliseconds, which is a simple mechanism that is known to last thousands of miles without adjustment. The wax core, now with digital sensors added, would partner that proven core in subsequent editions, with the facelifted GL450 and the new Mercedes-Benz GLS rebrand, to allow the engine computer to adjust the valve position to allow fine-tuned thermal balance in towing, city traffic or cold winter starts. Due to the similarity in mounting size and electric connector, the same Thermostat unit sold by the factory can be installed on pre-2012, 2012-2015 and 2016 models, enabling an upgrade or replacement without headache. Regulating the temperature does not just increase horsepower but also cuts down fuel consumption, lowers the amount of harmful emissions, and protects the important oil films, thereby helping in all aspects to increase the general safety of the car by avoiding unexpected loss of power when climbing steep inclines or merging to the highway. The Thermostat gadget even writes optimum settings to nonvolatile memory such that it will not be inconvenienced by temporary loss of power by battery disconnection. Rugged building materials resist vibration and road salt, and high-temperature seals prevent leakages that may leave families miles away without assistance. This attention to detail is what contributes to Mercedes-Benz vehicles developing a reputation for being resilient in harsh weather conditions, and why the real Thermostat is an outstanding feature in the sea of similar products in the automotive industry. And no matter whether your GL450 drives you to school every day or takes you on a journey across the country, this Mercedes-Benz part silently keeps the engine of the SUV running in optimal condition.
