FEBI172844 Febi Coolant Hose

This hose basically connects the engine to the radiator. It’s how the coolant—that green or orange liquid you might see—travels between the two. There’s usually an upper and a lower hose. The upper one carries the hot coolant from the engine to the radiator to get cooled down. The lower one brings the cooled coolant back to the engine to do it all over again. Simple enough, right? It's a crucial part of your car’s cooling system. Think of the cooling system like your car’s blood stream—it keeps everything from overheating. The radiator hose is a major highway in that system. It needs to be strong and flexible to handle the hot coolant flowing under pressure, and the constant engine vibrations. Without it, the engine can’t regulate its temperature properly. Well, if this hose fails, things can go south pretty quickly. You’ll notice if it starts leaking – you'd likely see coolant pooling under your car. But even a small crack or weakening can cause issues. If the hose bursts, you’ll lose coolant, and your engine will overheat almost instantly. Overheating can lead to some really expensive repairs—blown head gaskets, warped cylinder heads, the works. It’s one of those parts that's relatively inexpensive to replace, but can save you a lot of money and headache down the road. You can find replacements pretty easily – somewhere like Fixparts Online has a good selection, and it’s often something a reasonably handy person can tackle themselves. It's definitely worth keeping an eye on, and replacing it when it shows any signs of wear. Buy risk-free: Radiator Hose (MPN 172844) is covered by a 3 year manufacturer guarantee!
