Need help identifying this hose
Just discovered a pretty leaky coolant hose in my wife's 2008 Boxster (Tiptronic). For the life of me, I can't figure out what the part number is for this hose from any online diagram. Anyone know?

My bad. try searching for part 987 106 522 02, not sure if that's it but worth a look

Well, darn. I was pretty sure the coolant leak was coming from the edge of that hose but when I squeezed it, it felt pretty flexible and secure. So just to be certain, I wiped it down and started the car up. With the underbody panel off, I could now see a fast leak coming from that spot.
Raised it up on the lift and it is dripping from the water pump pulley. When the leak occurred, we were on the road and heard a bubbling sound coming from that area of the car that correlated with RPMs. So it looks like I need to replace the water pump (and thermostat while I'm at it). $535... ouch. But at least the hose is good. |
