Gates HVAC Heater Hose P/N:22513
Gates 18396 cooling system components for the 2003-2007 Honda Accord 3.0L and other vehicles come as a molded heater hose that runs from pipe-1 to the thermostat.
A loose clamp, a leaking thermostat housing or a failing heater core can be behind coolant loss too, so find the cause before buying a new hose. A hose that is cracked, soft, swollen or weeping coolant may be due for replacement.
It also fits the 2004-2006 Acura TL 3.2L.
