my wife's 99 E300D has a serious leak in a coolant hose, once it gets to temp. i have wrapped it in the stretch tape stuff temporarily, and then in aluminum tape for a heat shield. (fingers crossed!!)



i need the name or part number to this hose so i can put it on order.


the leak is in the hose directly below the intake hose and connects to the head right below the thermostat housing, but isn't the lower radiator hose, this on is much smaller. the other side connects to what i think is the auxiliary water pump?


what is this hose called? i have searched pelican and cant find it.



thanks for the help

Also, is the zerex G05 coolant the one one to use? the giant puddle/stain on my driveway looks to be the slight yellow color of that one....

I would use blue coolant (anti freeze) But, ask what the dealer use just in case.



Which hose is it?

holy cow thank you so much for all the help and diagrams! but, it is none of those hoses.... i am trying to resize a pic of it to post to meet the forum regulations.

Holy **** That's expensive...... They replaced the rubber with a steel pipe..... If I search pictures it's a steel pipe.

it needs to be steel! there is oil sprayed on this hose from somewhere that CLEARLY lead to it's disintegration!
