Product Description
Two of these hoses carry coolant to and from the oil cooler on the back of the oil pan, connecting it to the hard water pipe that runs along the back side of the engine.
Potential Product Fitment Issues
Depending which year and engine (T5 or 2.4i), you may have either two of these U-shaped hoses or an L-shaped hose and a wider U-shaped hose. If your car's oil cooler has two equal, straight inlet/outlet pipes, these are the correct hoses; the oil cooler design switched to the L-hose at engine serial number 3889713.
