Gates 01-09 Subaru Outback 6-Cyl. 3.0L Upper - To Right Cylinder Head Molded Coolant Hose

This is the upper coolant hose for your 2001-2009 Subaru Outback with the 3.0L 6-cylinder engine. It specifically runs from the engine to the right cylinder head, carrying coolant to keep your engine from overheating. A cracked or leaking hose can cause serious engine damage, so replacing it is a smart move, especially if yours is original or showing signs of wear.

Gates makes this hose using molded rubber, which means it's shaped to fit your Outback precisely. This molded design helps ensure it connects securely and doesn't kink or rub against other engine components, which can happen with universal hoses. It’s built to handle the heat and pressure of your cooling system, just like the original part.

When you're replacing a coolant hose, it's a good idea to check the condition of your other cooling system parts, like the thermostat and radiator cap, while you're in there. This hose is designed to fit right onto your specific Subaru model, making the replacement process straightforward.
