Product Description

This brand new lower radiator hose is designed for the cooling system, responsible for transporting coolant from the radiator to the engine. The hose features a molded shape with integrated plastic connectors and a protective sleeve to ensure secure fitment and durability. An attached two-pin electrical connector is included, which may be required for vehicles with sensor integration in the cooling circuit.

Compatible with select models including VW Golf V and VI 2.0 GTI, Jetta V, Audi A3, S3, and TT 2.0 TFSI from 2004 to 2014, this hose is specifically engineered for vehicles equipped with the 2.0 TFSI engine. As fitment can vary, it is essential to confirm your vehicle’s model, year, engine size, and engine code before purchasing.

Common symptoms of a failing lower radiator hose include coolant leaks, low coolant levels, engine overheating, visible cracks or swelling in the hose, loss of coolant pressure, and dashboard warning lights related to the cooling system. Electrical issues related to the connector, such as sensor faults, may also occur.

Replacement of the lower radiator hose is recommended if you notice leaks, swelling, cracks, or any signs of wear. It is also advisable to replace this hose when performing major cooling system repairs or if the attached electrical connector is damaged or corroded.
