13251447 Inlet Hose for Chevrolet Cruze 1.4L Engine 2011-2016 by TOPEMAI

The fact that Chevy made it to where you have to replace the whole hose when all you need is the damn clip. Lol 👎🏽👎🏽Cruze. Part was good

Saw a number of reviews saying this hose didn't fit. Let me possibly explain why. Sorry the pictures are not that great, but they show how the tip of my original hose broke off, causing a leak. To take this apart, pull the metal clip on the water outlet on the engine side. This will disconnect a plastic adapter off the engine's water outlet. Inside that plastic adapter, I had to remove the broken end off my old hose. I turned a the large screw inside the broken tip of the hose and pulled it out. Note there's a little o-ring in there, etc. Now it all snaps together properly. Also be careful when removing the other end from the overflow/fill tank. The GM tank is all plastic and may people have had a problem with it cracking at the hose connectors. Go easy as you remove the hose clamp. Then use a pair of plyers to slightly turn the hose to break it free before you attempt to pull it off. If you force it and break the tank, I would suggest buying the Dorman replacement which is a more rugged design. Good luck!

Easy fit simple to connect. Part honesty looked in better shape than the one from the dealership. I just had a user error completely my fault. I just say be careful with the clip. I dropped mine trying to connect it no clue were it went. But it was no big deal I had my old one. And it fit just perfectly.

Relatively easy to install. Fits no longer leaks. Will update if that changes in the near future

My car was leaking coolant and evaporating the coolant out but now since i got this part it does whats its supposed too its amazing. The trick is to not cut the o-ring out it seals the coolant versus what chevy did it when they installed it originally on the vehicle.

If u own a Chevy cruze this is a must have for a spare. Dealership told me these fail all the time an they keep them in stock but I wasnt giving $40 at dealership for the same part that is cheaper on Amazon. I own a 2013 chevy cruze an I would 100% recommend to but this for a extra it's cheap an takes less then 2mins to install.Also to see what fails I posted pictures the first 2 is the failed part an u can see were it goes too also

I’m redoing this review. The first one I ordered leaked, but after a couple of weeks I found the connection point it plugs into the water outlet valve was the issue. I got an OEM replacement outlet valve, and ordered a second inlet hose just to see. It leaked a little the first couple of days and then magically stopped, and hasn’t leaked since. Sure the first one might have been faulty, but I’m pretty sure it was on the outlet side. $10 you can’t go wrong.

The hose performed as expected for about 10 months. Today, the plastic clip that holds the trapezoidal end into the engine coolant block let go. It didn’t break, crack, or chip. It simply expanded so that the clip stays on the hose but doesn’t hold the hose to the engine.
