When upgrading to high-flow induction kits, the factory coolant hose often creates fitment interference or is forced into a stressed position. This Version 2 hose is engineered to reroute the coolant line neatly underneath the intake tract, providing the necessary clearance for a professional, "OEM+" installation while protecting the hose from long-term abrasion and heat stress.
Constructed from premium-grade, heat-resistant silicone, this hose is designed to withstand the high-pressure environment of the VAG cooling system. Version 2 (CI100053-A) is specifically designed for vehicles where the factory hose is secured by a standard spring clamp, making it a completely reversible, plug-and-play upgrade that requires no cutting of factory hardware.
Key Features:
- Optimized Clearance: Neatly reroutes the coolant hose under the intake to accommodate larger aftermarket intake pipes.
- Spring Clamp Compatibility: Designed specifically for vehicles using factory spring clamps for a non-destructive, easy install.
- Premium Silicone Construction: Multi-ply silicone material resists degradation from heat, pressure, and coolant additives.
- Clean Engine Bay Aesthetic: Black finish with a subtle APR logo ensures the upgrade looks like a factory performance part.
- Stress Reduction: Eliminates kinking or tight "snug" fits that can lead to premature hose failure in modified engine bays.
Identification Guide:
| Part Number | Factory Connection Type |
|---|---|
| CI100052-D (Version 1) | Crimp Clamp (Requires cutting for removal) |
| CI100053-A (Version 2) | Spring Clamp (Reusable/Plug-and-Play) |
Fitment Tip: Visually inspect your factory coolant hose before ordering. If the clamp has "ears" that can be squeezed with pliers to release it, this Version 2 (CI100053-A) is the correct part for your vehicle.
