Abstract
A multi-way valve configured to be mounted onto a manifold of an automotive thermal management system. The multi-way valve includes a valve housing and a valve core at least partially disposed within the valve housing. The valve core is rotatable relative to the valve housing. An axial end of the valve housing is opened to allow the valve core to enter the valve housing. The multi-way valve further includes a bayonet connection between the valve housing and the valve core to prevent the valve core from axially exiting the valve housing.
