Perodua Alza Thermostat Malaysia
Standard wax thermostat on the NR-VE. A stuck thermostat in a fully-loaded MPV is more serious — check coolant temperature gauge regularly and replace at the first sign of abnormal readings.

Alza Thermostat
- Thermostat regulates engine warm-up and operating temperature — replace if engine runs too cold or overheats
- Stuck-open thermostat: engine takes too long to warm up, heater ineffective
- Replace thermostat during coolant change for cost efficiency — it's a low-cost part
