Name that hose & a reminder to check your top radiator hose.

After a restricted performance message while towing our caravan I discovered that the inlet elbow was pushed off at an angle allowing intake air to escape. New o ring fitted and plastic tab that was causing it to be pushed aside ground off, sorted.

I also discovered my top hose was miss-shapen presumably as a result of soaking up oil and worse still nearly worn through by the engine cover. If you haven't already go and give yours a check, I'll be trimming the cover to prevent a repeat.

Have a new LR hose on the way, just curious as to what this one next to it is?

Coolant air bleed off for the engine.

Fantastic thanks, that is what I was hoping it might be. Will obviously lose a bit when I change the hose.
