Radiator Hoses

Recommended Posts

Hi my top radiator hose has now got a small hole in it :mad: I have done a temp fix with some of that hose tape but i really want a new hose. ecp, gsf dont do them and vw want about £70 for one does any of you know where i can get one on the cheap?

if not i will have to cut out the damaged bit of hose and make a join which i dont really want to do!

 

cheers for your help!

 

P.S. does you vr spluter into the header tank thought the radiator intake when you are bleeding the system ? cos i have a bad feeling that it could be the head on the way out :cry:

Other than a breakers, the dealer is the only source.

 

The spluttering in the header tank is most likely air escaping.....quite normal. When all the air is out, you should get a steady stream from the overflow pipe.
