General Motors13251447, Engine Coolant Recovery Tank Hose

Straight forward hose replacement. The old one came off and the new one popped right on with no fitment issues at all. Only thing you have to do though, is make sure the old one is all the way off. On mine, a small rubber o-ring and a small plastic piece had to be removed from the bracket before it would seat properly.

So a lot of reviews state that they sent out the wrong part and this was me as well! BUT it IS the right part. The picture is my old hose, I pulled everything out. So comparing the new hose to the old I was like WHAT? It’s completely different?? But no, it’s like a connector that was pulled out with the old hose. Take out the connector from the old hose, put it back, then put the new hose back in!!! If you take out the connector and compare the hoses they’re identical! THAT was the problem lolFit my 2012 Chevy Cruze 1.4 perfect!!

The item is only the hose and fitting, no clamp on the other end that attached to the reservoir tank side so you have to reuse your clamp. If you don’t have that you’d need to purchase one. One issue I had was I could not get it to snap into the connector on the engine side and didn’t know a piece from the old hose fitting broke off inside the connection. At first I thought they sent me the wrong part. Luckily a person with the same issue posted a youtube video where he described he had to pull the broken piece out. I looked at my fitting, pushed the broken piece out with a screwdriver and then the new fitting connected fine. This was on a 2012 Chevy Cruze. In order to get to the broken piece you have to remove a clip, pull the fitting out and push the broken piece out. This is on the engine and not the hose. Careful when you do that because at the bottom there is an o-ring that helps prevent water from leaking so try not to move or remove it which I did by mistake. Water leaked but then I reseated it properly and it worked fine. Just sharing my experience and hopefully you don’t run into what happened to me.

Product has lasted me quite a while no leakage. Worth your money.

Fits perfect and works like oem

It fits my 2013 Chevy Cruze LT perfectly. Chevy Cruzes are commonly found to have coolant leak problems. Installation was easy and it has held up so far and has solved my coolant leak.

This is a common known failure point of the 1.4L Ecotec found in the Chevy Cruze, Buick Encore, and Chevy Trax. Mine lasted about 122K miles. My Cruze is a commuter car so I am keeping it running. Easy repair, although I had to replace the water outlet also, but that's another review.

I bought this for a 2011 Cruze 1.4L. The original hose is Rev 001, and the one I got is Rev 005. I can't see anything different between the two hoses except for the different markings and numbers. They look the same to me. The opening sizes and shapes are the same. The new part appears to be an authentic GM part.Replacing the hose was very easy. I had coolant gush out of the top of the water outlet when I disconnected this hose. Next time, I would be prepared with a wet/dry vac or something to suck up the coolant. If you are changing the water outlet at the same time, you will not have this problem because your new water outlet won't have anything in it.This did not come with the hose clip that secures the hose to the surge tank. I just used the old one.
