{"product_id":"9065013582h-upper-radiator-hose","title":"Mercedes Sprinter Upper Radiator Hose – OEM Replacement (2010–2023) | #9065013582","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eA deteriorating upper radiator hose won't always announce itself before it fails. Heat cycling, pressure, and age cause rubber to harden and crack from the inside out — and by the time you see a leak, the damage is already done. This OEM-spec upper radiator hose is a direct replacement that restores a sealed, pressure-rated cooling circuit and keeps your Sprinter's temperature exactly where it needs to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat This Part Does\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe upper radiator hose carries hot coolant from the engine outlet to the top of the radiator, where heat is dissipated before the coolant cycles back through the engine. It's one of the highest-stress points in the cooling system — constantly subjected to pressure spikes, temperature extremes, and engine movement. A compromised hose here puts your entire cooling system at risk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen to Replace It\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eInspect this hose if your Sprinter is running warmer than normal, if you notice coolant puddles under the van, or if you detect the sweet smell of coolant near the engine. Replace immediately if you find cracks, soft spots, bulging, or seeping at the connection points. Smart preventive maintenance during any cooling system service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e2010–2023 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 – 3.0L V6 Diesel (OM642)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e2010–2023 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 – 3.0L V6 Diesel (OM642)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAlways verify your VIN before ordering.
