TD bottom radiator hose..

Post by themildbunch »

Just got back from a 'BX' day, having had a fight with my alternator and fitted new brushes...

As I didn't see an old post about getting the alternator out through the headlamp hole :oops: I drained the coolant and took out the rad which wasn't too bad and I replaced the cracked oil cooler hoses which I'd been meaning to do for ages and did the oil and filter.

Got a shock though from the condition of my bottom radiator hose - very cracked. Pretty sure the part number is: 95638588 but I'm also pretty sure these are NLA from Citroen, anyone know for sure or have a spare?

Failing that how difficult / expensive is getting a silicone one made up or adapted from standard lengths? IIRC the ends are different dimensions on this hose.
