Default 2002 Coolant line kit

My ‘02 C2 is leaking coolant from a couple of connectors and obviously everything needs to be replaced (overflow tank already replaced).

is there anything like this for a 996? I can’t seem to find anything. Appreciate any help!

FCP kits are not discounted, they allow you to add a group of parts at regular price to your cart with one click.

While I don't understand how its obvious that everything needs to be replaced, do you believe the hose is leaking or that the connection is not good? I don't hear al lot of reports of hose failure.

This one I did witness at the track having a failure.

Hbdunn, Thanks for the response. My Indy has the car in the air and I believe it’s the connectors, but I haven’t been to the shop to see it myself.

I had the same hose go that was mentioned by hbdunn. It blew out on the road. and ended my day. It is the only one I've lost so far. I have replaced only one other on a prophylactic basis: 996-106-223-52 and the connector to it: 996-106-226. That last one, the best option is the R&S. The URO and Porsche stock are not as well designed.
