Product Description

The Cooltec HOSE RADIATOR UPPER is an essential part of your BMW's cooling system, responsible for carrying coolant from the engine to the radiator. This hose is designed with a curved, moulded rubber construction and features integrated plastic connectors, including a port for a sensor or secondary attachment. It is engineered to fit specific BMW models, ensuring proper coolant flow and secure connections to prevent leaks.

This upper radiator hose is compatible with selected BMW models, including the E88, E82, E90, X1 E84, and Z4 E89 series equipped with the N54 engine. Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before placing an order to guarantee correct fitment.

Common symptoms of a failing upper radiator hose include visible cracks, bulging, coolant leaks around the hose connections, overheating, or a sudden drop in coolant levels. You may also notice the engine temperature gauge rising or coolant residue near the hose clamps or connectors.

It is important to replace the upper radiator hose at the first sign of wear, leakage, or softening of the rubber. Regular inspection is recommended, especially if your BMW is experiencing cooling issues, to prevent breakdowns and potential engine damage.
