Product Description

The Arrowhead Water Flange Upper Radiator is an essential component in your vehicle's cooling system, designed to manage the flow of coolant between the radiator and engine. This part plays a vital role in maintaining optimal engine temperature and preventing overheating. Constructed from durable plastic, it is engineered to withstand constant thermal cycling and pressure changes.

This water flange is suitable for select Seat and Volkswagen models, including popular options like the Polo 9N and Touran with 1.8, 1.9, and 2.0 engines. Due to variations in engine codes and model years, it is important to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle before purchase.

Common symptoms of a failing water flange include coolant leaks, visible cracks or damage, low coolant levels, engine overheating, steam from the engine bay, and persistent warning lights on the dashboard. You might also notice poor heater performance or the smell of coolant under the bonnet.

If you notice any of these issues, replacing the water flange promptly is crucial. This helps prevent further cooling system damage and costly repairs. Always check your vehicle’s model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering.
