Re: Heater Core Hose Leak

When I did my clutch job I wrestled with those hoses for 15 minutes without moving them

I ended up disconnecting at the head, leaving them in place at the firewall,

So humiliating to be be defeated by some rubber hoses, I’m still in therapy

- In my 1998 S70 GLT, I rebuilt the whole system: cutting the aluminum pipes, running standard heater hoses through firewall ---> engine. Here is the DIY...you can do the same thing for your S60 etc.

Just wanted to update this topic with the Part Numbers
Important to look at the Fitment section because there are several variations for the car model, engine, years etc
I can't find the part number for the S60R and V60R (for the R engine, may want to call the Volvo dealer)
Each hose is different: look at the hose shape to determine which is left or right.
