Product Description

This Cooltec hose is designed to connect the gearbox oil cooler to the steel pipe in the cooling system, ensuring efficient fluid transfer and temperature regulation. Specifically made for select Audi and Volkswagen models, this curved rubber hose is part of the cooling radiator hose system and plays a vital role in maintaining optimal gearbox performance.

Compatibility includes various Audi and Volkswagen vehicles, commonly found in models such as the Audi A3 and VW Golf or Jetta from the late 1990s to mid-2000s. However, fitment can vary, so please confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure the correct match.

It is important to replace this hose if you observe any signs of wear, cracking, swelling, or leakage. Regular inspection and timely replacement help prevent costly gearbox or cooling system damage.
