This is an upper radiator hose designed to connect the engine's cylinder head to the radiator, facilitating the flow of coolant for engine temperature regulation. Constructed from durable, heat-resistant rubber compounds, it maintains its integrity under high temperatures and pressures, unlike a cracked or collapsed hose. Operators may observe coolant leaks, a rising engine temperature gauge, or steam escaping from the engine bay when this hose fails.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Inspect mating surfaces for wear before fitting. Use torque specs from service manual. Replace gaskets and seals as a set — reusing compressed gaskets causes oil leaks. Clean all oil passages with compressed air.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
The initial symptom of a failing upper radiator hose is often a visible crack or bulge, or a persistent coolant leak around the connection points. If ignored, the hose can degrade further, leading to a significant coolant loss and a rapid increase in engine operating temperature. This can result in engine overheating and potential damage to critical engine components.
Ensure the connection surfaces on the engine and radiator are clean and free of corrosion before fitting the new hose. Do not use excessive force to slide the hose onto the fittings, as this can damage the hose or the connection point.
When replacing the upper radiator hose, it is advisable to inspect the lower radiator hose, radiator cap, and thermostat for any signs of wear or malfunction.
