❌ No — genuine parts are hard to source in many areas.

Mechanics report:

Most shops stock generic o r Chinese thermostats with poor thermal reliability

Genuine Changan thermostats may take several days to order

Risk: Installing mismatched thermostats that fail prematurely o r don’t fit well

🛠️ Tip: Always verify the temperature rating usually stamped as 82°C / 88°C / 92°C when buying a replacement.
