This little part connects your engine’s coolant passages to the radiator hoses. Basically, it’s where the coolant leaves the engine to get cooled down. It has openings for both the hose connections and also bolts right up against the engine block, sealing everything tight. Some flanges also have sensors built right into them – temperature sensors, things like that. Think of it as a critical junction in your cooling system. Coolant circulates through the engine to grab heat, and this flange is the doorway out to the radiator. Without it, coolant can't get to where it needs to go, and your engine will overheat pretty quickly. It’s a direct pathway for that heated coolant, so location is key. If this thing cracks or corrodes, you’re going to have a coolant leak. It might start small, but those leaks can get worse quickly, leading to overheating, and potentially some serious engine damage. You’ll notice if you see green or orange coolant pooling under your car, or if your temperature gauge starts running hotter than usual. It acts like a shield, keeping that vital coolant contained. Replacing it restores the integrity of the cooling system. You can find a replacement pretty easily – Fixparts Online usually has a good selection – and it’s a relatively straightforward repair if you’re comfortable working on cars. Ignoring it can turn a small problem into a really expensive one, so it’s worth taking care of. Guaranteed satisfaction: Coolant Outlet Flange (MPN 079121147G) includes a 12-month warranty!
