Gates 09-13 Subaru Forester 4-Cyl. 2.5L Heater Outlet Molded Heater Hose

What you get with this Gates part is a molded heater outlet hose, specifically shaped to fit your 2008-2014 Subaru Impreza, 2009-2013 Subaru Forester, or 2008-2011 Subaru Outback. This hose is crucial for circulating hot coolant from the engine to your vehicle's heater core, which is what warms up the cabin air. When your old hose starts to crack or leak, you'll notice a loss of heat or even coolant puddles under your car.

Gates makes this hose from a durable rubber compound that's built to handle the heat and pressure found in your cooling system. Because it's molded, it has the correct bends and shape to install without a fight, meaning you won't have to force it or try to make a straight hose fit a curved path. This direct-fit design helps ensure a secure connection and prevents leaks, keeping your heating system working as it should.
