Dorman - OE Solutions Engine Coolant Pipe P/N:902-697
Keep coolant moving cleanly to the engine with the Dorman - OE Solutions Engine Coolant Pipe 902-5423. This direct-fit replacement drops into the 2004-2007 Volkswagen Touareg (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment), taking the place of an original pipe that has failed from heat or corrosion. Dorman also catalogs this part under the description Engine Coolant Thermostat Housing Assembly, so it may appear under both names.
A coolant pipe routes coolant between the cooling-system components; over time heat cycling and corrosion can crack or perforate the original, showing up as coolant weeping, drips, or low coolant level. If a failed coolant pipe is the cause, this replaces it.
