  • A Gates molded heater hose from the Small I.D. Molded Coolant Hose line, factory-molded in an OEM style for smaller, tighter engine compartments
  • Works in coolant, water and air applications and is also approved for marine use

A heater hose that cracks, swells or seeps can show up as coolant loss, a coolant smell or weaker heat from the vents. With the engine off and cool, look along the hose for wet spots, cracks or a soft, bulging section, and find where a leak starts before you replace anything, since a loose clamp or a fitting can also seep.

It is a direct-fit heater hose for the 2015 Chevrolet Equinox and the 2012-2015 Chevrolet Captiva Sport.
