Hi I have a coolant leak on my 2008 GC from the "Y" shaped hose 'valve' right on top of the engine on the hose that leads from the rad. Unsure what the part is called or what the part number is, I have tried a few sites but no luck. Anyone know how the hoses are attached to the Y valve? There are no clips on it and I did not want to damage it by pulling on them too hard before I get a replacement lined up.

 

More than likely you will have to buy the whole radiator hose assembly, however I didn't see that exact part on rockauto. The hoses do not detach from the y. May be a dealer item at this time.

 

See this post: https://dodgeforum.com/forum/dodge-c...lant-leak.html

There is a lot of good information in there, including DIY fixes.

 

That is exactly what I need, I am searching online now trying to find a suitable Y connector, no luck so far

 

Did you see this in post #25?: Here's a link to oreillyauto.com :http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/de...0187&ppt=C0108

 

Yep saw that but I'm located in Canada and am trying to find somewhere that wont charge $30 to ship it, O'Reilys wont ship outside the US at all

 

I did some Googling and found that Summit Racing has the part listed as "Four Seasons #84757", more searching dug up the following ACDelco cross reference http://www.acdelco.com/pdf/appcat_bu..._reference.pdf. It shows the Four Seasons #84757 cross referenced to the following (among others):

1. ACDelco part number 15-31767
2. GM part number 88918449 (which has been superseded by 19193809)

I found that RockAuto.com has the ACDelco part (do a part number search for 1531767) and it appears to be the same as the O'Reilly & Summit parts.

If you can't find anyone that stocks the ACDelco part locally, your best bet might be to order one at a GM dealer.

Good luck.

 

Thanks for that George, I have sent emails to GM dealer and the local ACDelco guy and will see what they come back with
