Coolant Hose, Return. Porsche 970.2 Panamera 3.0L 2013-16  ❭  97010650160

The Coolant Hose, Return is a OE MATCH engine coolant return hose designed to carry coolant back through the cooling system loop on compatible Porsche Panamera (970) models. This flexible hose helps maintain proper coolant circulation and temperature regulation by directing coolant toward key cooling components for re-cooling or reservoir return. It offers precise fitment, high resistance to heat and pressure, and long-term durability.

Fits:

• Porsche 970.2 Panamera S V6 Turbo 3.0L 2WD (420Hp) 2014-16
• Porsche 970.2 Panamera S V6 Turbo 3.0L 2WD Executive 2014-16
• Porsche 970.2 Panamera 4S V6 Turbo 3.0L 4WD (420Hp) 2014-16
• Porsche 970.2 Panamera 4S V6 Turbo 3.0L 4WD Executive 2014-16

• Returns coolant from components such as the radiator, heater circuit, or other cooling lines back into the main cooling loop.
  
• Helps maintain continuous coolant circulation, which is essential for stable engine temperature control.
  
• Supports proper heat dissipation, allowing coolant to be re-cooled before recirculating through the engine.
  
• Provides a flexible, heat-resistant connection that accommodates engine movement and thermal expansion.
  
  

• Coolant may seep or drip from the hose body or at the connection points, often leaving wet staining or dried residue.
• A leaking return hose can cause gradual coolant loss, requiring frequent top-ups.
• Coolant loss or restricted flow can reduce cooling efficiency and cause overheating or fluctuating temperature readings.
• A sweet odor in the engine bay is a common sign of a coolant leak.
• Common signs include cracking or splitting, swelling or bulging, hardened or brittle rubber, soft spots, coolant staining around the hose.
  
• If coolant circulation is disrupted, the heater core may not receive proper coolant flow.
• Low coolant or temperature warning messages may appear as the hose begins to fail.

• Prevents coolant leaks that lead to low coolant levels and loss of cooling system pressure.
  
• Helps avoid engine overheating, which can cause serious and expensive engine damage.
  
• Restores proper coolant circulation, ensuring efficient cooling performance under all driving conditions.
  
• Maintains stable heater performance, since the heater system depends on continuous coolant flow.
  
• Protects surrounding components, as leaking coolant can damage sensors, wiring, seals, and nearby engine parts.
