Audi VW Engine Coolant Hose Flange - Genuine Audi VW 1J0122291G

Product Information

An engine coolant hose flange is a fitting or connection point where the coolant hoses attach to the engine or other components in the cooling system. This flange is typically made of metal or plastic and is designed to create a secure seal to prevent coolant leaks. It plays a critical role in maintaining the proper flow of coolant throughout the engine, radiator, and heater core, helping to regulate the engine's temperature.

• Coolant Leaks: One of the most noticeable symptoms of a failing coolant hose flange is visible coolant leaks. If the flange or the connection point becomes damaged, coolant may leak onto the ground or other engine components
• Overheating Engine: A compromised flange can disrupt the flow of coolant, leading to insufficient cooling. This can cause the engine to overheat, triggering the temperature warning light on the dashboard

About Genuine VW Audi

The Volkswagen Group, also known as “VAG”, consists of Volkswagen, Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche, Ducati, MAN, Scania, SEAT, and Skoda. The original parts used by VAG to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine VAG” brand. Manufactured under the direction of VAG, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are available exclusively through the VAG Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your VAG are not necessarily manufactured by VAG. No cause for concern, as VAG designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for VAG for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine VAG parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a VAG logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
