Product Details

The Dayco Curved Radiator Hose line is engineered for formed coolant routing where a straight hose will not match the vehicle layout. This Dayco 73142 hose is shaped for the upper radiator connection on 2011-2013 Mazda 6 models and is sized to transition between the two specified inside diameters. For buyers searching for a 2011-2013 Mazda 6 upper radiator hose or a Dayco 73142 curved radiator hose, this part matches the listed application and dimensional requirements.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Cooling System Issues

  • Cracked or hardened upper radiator hose material
  • Coolant seepage at the hose connection points
  • Improper hose fit due to incorrect diameter or formed shape
  • Heat-related hose deterioration in the engine bay
  • Restricted coolant routing from a damaged curved hose

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the hose routing, end diameters, and upper position before installation. Confirm the mating necks are clean and free of debris, then inspect clamps and adjacent cooling components for wear before reassembly. This hose is listed for 2011-2013 Mazda 6 upper applications only.

Quality Assurance

Dayco manufactures this hose to meet SAE J20R4 Class D-1 and SAE J1684 Type EC requirements, supporting consistent material and dimensional standards for cooling-system service.
