Coolant hoses in your vehicle are essential for transporting the coolant that keeps your engine running at the right temperature. They link key components like the radiator to the engine itself. You'll notice a variety of hoses under the bonnet, each designed differently to fit their specific role in the cooling process.
Why change a coolant hose?
As with all rubber-based components (such as brake hoses, tyres, and belts), coolant hoses have a finite lifespan. After about a decade, they may lose their ability to withstand pressure and become less reliable. The primary issue to watch for is leaks, which can stem from hose wear, loosened clamps, or cracks. These leaks, if left unchecked, can lead to more significant problems. Regular inspections and timely replacements are key. By staying on top of hose maintenance, you can avoid more serious issues and ensure your engine continues to run smoothly.
