was8v 0 Posted April 20, 2006 My top coolant hose (the one that T's off to the expansion bottle among others) has split. I'm going to ring the dealer tomorrow to order another - can anyone find me the part number as the the parts guy at my dealer is useless from previous experience. Also need a gasket for the top of the rad (to go under the 90 degree elbow which connects to the top hose). Cheers, Will. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

was8v 0 Posted April 20, 2006 Um there is a 90 degree elbow coming off the top of the rad, the gasket goes under it. That pic is different to my car - the hose is different too. Mine is a 93 but it is a coilpack car - that one looks like a distributer? can you see for later cars? Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

was8v 0 Posted April 20, 2006 Cheers! I can see from that the gasket im on about is 531 121 687 "round seal" Just one thing - Is the hose the same part number as before??? looks different and isn't on the 2nd screenshot Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saysomestuff 0 Posted April 20, 2006 it's number 23 - highlighted mate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
was8v 0 Posted April 21, 2006 Um hate to be a pain in the arse but no 23 is the 90 deg elbow. I'm after the actual coolant hose connecting the block to the rad and T ing off to the expansion bottle. (as well at the seal under the 90 deg elbow highlighted). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZippyVR6 0 Posted February 5, 2011 Wow. Just comeback from the dealers after enquiring about a VR6 Top Hose, as my Samco burst open. They wanted £112 for it!!! :confused4: I told him that I'd probably look elsewhere, as that was an extortionate amount of cash for a bit of rubber. I tried GSF, who no longer supply them, any one got any ideas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
