The Gates Molded Coolant Hose line is engineered for upper, lower, bypass, heater, and other coolant routing needs, and this part number is one of the molded replacement options in that range.

Product Details

This molded coolant hose is made for vehicles that require a shaped hose rather than a straight universal section. Gates 23392 follows OEM-quality specifications and is sized for the lower cooling circuit on the 2006-2011 Honda Element. If you are replacing a worn or leaking Honda Element lower coolant hose, this formed EPDM hose provides the correct routing profile for the application.

This part cross-references Continental 66238 for the same application.

Common Problems This Hose Can Address

• Coolant leaks from a cracked or aged lower radiator hose
• Softening, swelling, or collapse of the original hose
• Poor hose routing after prior repair or replacement
• Cooling-system service on a 2006-2011 Honda Element
• Replacement of a molded hose with the correct formed shape

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify hose routing, end diameters, and centerline length before installation. Inspect hose clamps, mating necks, and nearby cooling-system components for wear or corrosion before reassembly. Drain coolant as needed, transfer the hose carefully to preserve the molded shape, and confirm there are no twists or kinks after installation.
