Thermostat 87 Deg (A160, A190 M166) (Mercedes-Benz A-Class W168) is a crucial component in your vehicle’s cooling system. It regulates engine temperature by controlling coolant flow between the engine and radiator to maintain optimal operating conditions. This thermostat opens at 87 degrees Celsius, designed specifically for Mercedes-Benz A-Class models with A160 and A190 M166 engines within the W168 series.

This part helps prevent overheating and excessive engine wear by ensuring the engine warms up efficiently and maintains a steady temperature during operation. When comparing with your existing thermostat, verify the temperature rating (87 degrees) and that it is compatible with the A160 or A190 engine types in the W168 body style to ensure proper function.

The thermostat fits into the cooling system housing and is essential for stable engine performance and temperature consistency. If the old thermostat shows signs of failure—such as engine overheating, poor heating, or erratic temperature fluctuations—this replacement ensures the cooling system can resume normal operation.
