Land Rover Part Number: ERR2429 - Thermostat Housing Gasket - V8
ERR2429 is a thermostat housing gasket that seals the joint between the thermostat housing and the inlet manifold on Rover V8 petrol engines. The gasket provides a coolant-tight seal to prevent leaks at the housing/manifold joint and should be renewed whenever the thermostat housing or inlet manifold is removed or if any coolant seepage is detected. During fitting, ensure mating faces are clean and free of old gasket material to achieve a reliable seal.

Frequently Asked Questions
ERR2429 seals the joint between the thermostat housing and the inlet manifold to stop coolant escaping at that junction. Over time the gasket material can harden, shrink or split, causing coolant leaks; inspect the joint if overheating or visible seepage occurs. Replace the gasket when the housing is removed and ensure mating surfaces are clean to avoid repeat leaks.
