Product Description

The Arrowhead Water Flange Upper Radiator is an essential component in your vehicle's cooling system, designed to manage coolant flow between the engine and radiator. This water flange features multiple hose connections and an integrated electrical connector, ensuring precise coolant distribution and temperature regulation. Its robust plastic construction and secure mounting points are engineered for reliable operation in demanding engine environments.

This water flange is compatible with selected Audi and Volkswagen models, including popular vehicles such as the Audi A3, Volkswagen Golf VII, Tiguan, and Beetle with 1.2 and 1.4 TSI or TFSI engines. Compatibility may vary by model year, engine size, and engine code, so it is important to verify fitment before purchase.

Common symptoms of a failing water flange include coolant leaks, engine overheating, low coolant warnings, poor heater performance, visible cracks or damage on the flange, and erratic temperature gauge readings. You may also notice coolant smell under the bonnet or coolant pooling beneath the vehicle.

Replacement of the water flange is recommended if you detect leaks, visible wear, or if the electrical connector becomes faulty. Timely replacement helps prevent engine overheating and potential engine damage, especially in modern turbocharged engines where cooling system integrity is critical.

At MiMi Auto Parts, we offer nationwide delivery across South Africa and are committed to helping you find the right part for your vehicle. Always confirm your model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure proper fitment and performance.
