# Stant 27271 Thermostat Seal for Audi 200, 1989–1991

Audi is the German maker that made its name in the 1980s with five-cylinder engines and quattro all-wheel drive, and its older cars reward owners who keep them right. On the Audi side, Stant's catalog lists the 27271 for 12 models from 1978 to 1994.

This page is for one model only: the Audi 200. It isn't a wall of every car ever made, just yours.

## Model this seal fits

- Audi 200 (1989–1991)
- 5-Cyl. 2.2L: 1989–1991

## Help choosing the right seal

The 27271 is a Stant thermostat seal, a molded rubber ring that seals the thermostat or the water outlet (thermostat housing) instead of a flat paper gasket. Its Gates equivalent, Gates 33613, is described as a O-ring seal, about 2.359 in. inside diameter × 2.637 in. outside diameter × 0.14 in. thick. Stant's own description of these seals: no sealer or RTV is needed for a leak-proof seal, and each one is shaped for its application. Stant made a different seal for each housing design, and Don stocks several of them, so check which number your car calls for.

Before you order, match three things: your year, your model, and your engine. Catalogs list fitment by vehicle, but some engines had more than one thermostat housing design over the years. If your old seal is still in hand, compare its size and shape, or just ask Don and Kathy. They'll help you sort it out.

## Real people behind the parts

Back in 1997, when almost nobody had a website, Don and Kathy were already selling car parts online. They were the very first web customer of Daniel Comp's Intelligent Network. They've since sold through eBay, Bonanza, and their own site, and kept the sales coming no matter how often the internet changed its rules.

These seals come from Don's own shelves.

## Price is $9.95 plus $3.00 for shipping.

Don and Kathy offer a fair deal for this. Buying for a club, a shop, or a whole fleet of project cars? Even better.
