Radiator Hose Video

Radiator hoses carry coolant between the engine, radiator, and water pump, helping keep the cooling system working properly. Most vehicles have an upper hose and a lower hose that allow coolant to circulate through the system.

Over time, radiator hoses can wear out due to heat and pressure. Some manufacturers provide recommended replacement intervals, but these can vary by vehicle. If you’re unsure, the team at Pleasant Hill Auto Repair can help.

If a radiator hose becomes worn or fails, it may lead to coolant leaks, which can affect how well the engine is cooled. In some cases, this can lead to overheating if not addressed.

It’s a good idea to visually inspect radiator hoses for signs of wear, such as cracking, bulging, or leaks. If you notice any of these issues, it may be time for replacement.

At Pleasant Hill Auto Repair in Lebanon, ME, we can help inspect your cooling system. We may begin with an evaluation as part of our auto diagnostics service and check related components within the cooling system service.

If your radiator hoses or cooling system need to be inspected, call (207) 457-6292 today.
