  • Incorrect hose shape after prior repair work
  • Restricted coolant flow caused by hose collapse

Installation Notes

Verify the hose routing, end diameters, and lower-position fitment before installation. Inspect the radiator neck and engine-side connection surfaces for wear, corrosion, or residue, and replace damaged clamps as needed during service. Confirm the hose is seated fully and routed without twist or contact with moving or hot components.
