Samco radiator hose auto $20
Few months old
In perfect condition
It's the lower & longer hose
They were nearly $200 for a set from memory off eBay .
Asking $20
Cheers
Also have a good condition radiator for $80

Just FYI quickly, pretty sure the only difference is the bend in the lower one.
I fix cars.

Correct, tops are the same.Daniel2019 wrote:Just FYI quickly, pretty sure the only difference is the bend in the lower one.
manual bends the other direction than the auto.
Both 4spd and 5spd auto are the same lower hose.
This also applies to non Mivec 6A12 FTOs. But not 4 cylinder.
n00bs covered.

Yes, but the lower hose gets cooked because it sits up against the gearbox.Sahin wrote:and manual ones fit on the auto but not vice versa
Current issue with smurfy which is why I'll be swapping with SN000R.

Re: Samco radiator hose auto
Yes but I'm probably going to have to buy the whole kit new for the manual.. So will sell this lot.

True, true. Just swap the bottom one if you find someone wanting to swap though. If you had've got to me last week then I would've swapped.destinationtoby wrote:Yes but I'm probably going to have to buy the whole kit new for the manual.. So will sell this lot.

Last lot I got were off eBay, don't think they're on there anymore

They're better than the standard ones aren't they? Or I could just swap my lower manual one for a lower auto one like a normal person...Sahin wrote:Just get a normal bottom one... you cant even see it

Re: Samco radiator hose auto
They don't get anywhere near as hot and don't get weak and bendy (no movement) when they are hot..
They fit tighter, won't ever split, and yeah, look mardd

Coolant hoses are coolant hoses, you replace them when they are getting old, say every 100,000km
