Radiator hoses – selecting engine cooling hoses

Radiator hoses carry coolant between components of the cooling system. Versions differ in design, dimensions and application. Check compatibility with the exact vehicle specification.

How to choose a radiator hose

Compare OE number, shape, connection diameters, additional branches and engine type. Check the manufacturer's catalogue and vehicle documentation; versions vary within the same model.

What indicates damage?

Leaks, cracks, swelling and falling coolant levels require inspection, but may be caused by other components. Confirm the fault before replacement.

Installation advice

Follow service procedures and manufacturer instructions. Check the system for leaks and bleed it where specified. See also engine coolants and compare catalogue numbers.
