Gates 2014 Mini Cooper 4-Cyl. 2.0L Lower Molded Coolant Hose

This Gates molded lower coolant hose is made from EPDM rubber, a material known for its resistance to heat and coolant chemicals. It's shaped specifically to fit the lower radiator outlet on a 2014 Mini Cooper with the 4-cylinder 2.0L engine.

A molded hose like this one is designed to replace the original hose exactly, ensuring it bends and routes correctly without kinking or rubbing. This is important because a coolant hose that's not routed properly can restrict flow, leading to overheating, or it can rub against other engine components and fail prematurely. Gates uses specific engineering to make sure these hoses fit right and hold up to the demands of the cooling system.

Replacing a coolant hose is a good idea if you see any cracks, swelling, or leaks. This hose is a direct replacement for the factory part, making the installation straightforward.
