OE-Style Upper Radiator Hose for Jaguar

Rein CHR0131R is an OE quality radiator coolant hose made for European vehicle cooling systems that require a direct-fit replacement. It is built for the upper radiator hose position on select Jaguar Vanden Plas and Jaguar XJ8 models, with the branch shape and thermoplastic quick-connect details matched to the original design.

For Jaguar XJ8 upper radiator hose replacement and 1998-2003 Jaguar Vanden Plas cooling system service, CHR0131R helps restore a proper seal without trimming or reshaping the hose. The EPDM construction is made to handle heat, salt, road debris, oil, and other contaminants in daily driving conditions.

Key Features

  • Direct replacement for OE radiator hose assemblies
  • Application-specific fit for the upper cooling circuit
  • Reduces installation time by eliminating hose modification
  • No cutting, refitting, or adjusting required
  • Helps prevent leaks and repeat repairs from reused quick connectors and O-rings
  • EPDM hose material with SAE J20 R4 D1 compliance
  • Resistant to heat, salt, road debris, oil, and contaminants
  • Black finish with OE-style dimensions and connector layout

Detailed Description

Rein CHR0131R radiator hose is engineered as a complete OE quality direct fit European hose for the upper radiator connection. It measures 14.25 inches centerline length and uses matching 1.54-inch inside diameter ends with thermoplastic quick-connect style interfaces sized to the original application. This part number is built to support the cooling system layout used on 1998-2003 Jaguar Vanden Plas and 1998-2003 Jaguar XJ8 models, making it a practical choice for Jaguar upper radiator hose replacement work. CHR0131R is also referenced by cross numbers MNC4500AC and MNC4500AD for the same application.

Common Problems It Can Address

  • Cracked or leaking upper radiator hose
  • Coolant seepage at aged quick-connect fittings
  • Repeat leaks caused by reused O-rings or connectors
  • Cooling system service delays from hose modification
  • Fitment issues from non-OE-shaped replacement hoses

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle application before installation and compare the original hose routing, connector style, and overall length to CHR0131R. This hose is designed for direct replacement, so no cutting or refitting should be necessary when used on the listed Jaguar applications. Inspect mating surfaces, clamps, and sealing points during service to help ensure a clean coolant system repair.

Quality Assurance

Rein positions this hose as an OE quality replacement for European vehicles, with construction and connector geometry matched to the original part. It is built to SAE J20 R4 D1 standards and backed by a 24-month warranty.
