626-598 Engine Heater Hose Assembly Compatible with Select Nissan Models (OE FIX)

ممتاز مناسب للاكستيرا 2012 وأفضل من الأصلي.. انصح بتركيبة بدل الأصلي لجودته

Very good product and it has alluminum parts that replacing the palstic parts of the OEM

Well fitted even bends of rubber hose. Aluminum fittings is added feature and better than original plastic. Installed in 20 mins for a DIY mechanic using vise grip to remove the clamps. Removal of engine top cover makes installation easier. Really satisfied.

اللي معه اكستيرا من موديل 2008الى 2015 خذه وانت مغمض افضل بكثير من البلاستيك حق الوكاله اللي يهرب واحيان ينكسر وانت ماتعرف وبعدها تخبط المكينه ذا عمره اطول

The OE Nissan heater hose has a plastic tee molded in ( non-replaceable ), that cracks & then leaks when it gets age hardened and brittle. This Dorman piece is great, direct drop-in replacement but all rubber and metal, no junk plastic moldings. You will need to replace the spring clamp at the firewall side, with a stainless steel aircraft worm gear clamp, as the spring clamp they supply has an installation "holder" tab that's supposed to be removed to let the clamp relax into place. However, this doesn't work as the tab hits the AC line that's just above the heater outlet pipes. A minor nit to pick though here, really, as the rest of the assembly is top-notch and should last the life of the truck. I gave the assembly itself a 4 star for installation due to the mentioned tab above, but I give Nissan a 1 star for making the OE assembly such junk, and then making it so so so difficult to field repair. Be prepared to lay on top of the engine cover while attempting to wrestle off the OE spring clamps, they were obviously put in place before the engine went in, as getting them out is a nightmare. I ended up using a water pump pliers, another needle nose pliers and a specialty spring clamp pliers set ( another king Jeffrey of AmazonWorldLand purchase ) to work these little buggers outta place. So be warned, and be prepared. You will need to replace both fittings at once, as getting this one off without removing the other heater extension, is well nigh impossible as well as I could see. And that one contains plastic as well, so do 'em both at the same time. You will also find threading this assembly back through behind the engine will be a huge challenge as there is a large wiring harness back there, that I got hung up on, five or six times. It was an exercise in patience, for certain.

Exact fit thank you

If you own a Nissan Xterra, the original heater hose assembly is basically a plastic time bomb waiting to go off under your hood. I learned this the hard way on my first Xterra while beach driving. It started overheating, I noticed the original plastic connector seeping at the firewall, and I made the rookie mistake of barely touching it to check it. It immediately disintegrated and sprayed hot coolant directly into my face. Zero stars for that experience. Five stars for this Dorman replacement. I’ve since bought this part for my second and third Xterras. It replaces the cheap OEM plastic connectors with actual metal. It’s a super easy install that permanently solves one of the most common failure points on these trucks. Do yourself a favor and replace it proactively before you end up stranded (or scalded) like I did.
