Gates 09-15 Toyota Venza 4-Cyl. 2.7L Heater Inlet Molded Heater Hose

When your 2009-2015 Toyota Venza's heater isn't blowing warm air, a cracked or leaking heater hose is often the culprit. This Gates molded heater inlet hose is designed to replace the original part on 4-cylinder, 2.7L models, ensuring your heater core gets the hot coolant it needs to warm up the cabin.

Gates uses a robust EPDM rubber compound for this hose, which is built to withstand the high temperatures and pressures found in your vehicle's cooling system. The molded shape means it fits precisely where the factory hose did, making installation straightforward. This hose is specifically the inlet side, meaning it's the one carrying hot coolant from the engine to the heater core.

Replacing a heater hose is a common maintenance task. Having the correct molded shape, like this Gates hose, makes the job much easier than trying to bend and fit a universal hose. Just be sure to have some fresh coolant on hand for topping off after the replacement.
