What is an electronic thermostat assembly?

10-15,2025

The electronic thermostat assembly, also known as the thermal management module. It is a key component of the BMW B48 engine which is composed by a thermostat and a heater control valve.

The electronic thermostat assembly can accurately control the flow rate of the coolant according to the real-time temperature of the engine, keeping the engine at an optimal working temperature under any circumstances.

For BMW vehicles equipped with the B48 engine, usually when the mileage reaches 60,000 - 80,000 kilometers, the electronic thermostat assembly may malfunction, resulting in phenomena such as antifreeze leakage, engine overheating etc. In case of the above problems, a new electronic thermostat assembly should be replaced in time.
