Title: coolant hoses
Post by: dwarfslapper on January 29, 2006, 10:04:08 PM
My plan is to replace all the coolant hoses including thoes to the turbo and get rid of the plastic AST for a metal one.

Does anyone know how many there are,is it an ar$e of a job and the best place to get them from.

I did read someware that if you can smell coolant when driving hard it may be one of the turbo hoses which i can hence why i am going to change them all.

Any help would be great Thanks :Thumbs-up

A bit of cutting can make the top one fit the rad if its stood up, did it when i fit the FMIC. They are nice pipes too.
