Frequently asked questions

What does this radiator hose to thermostat (PCH503290) do?

This radiator hose connects the radiator outlet to the engine thermostat housing, returning cooled coolant from the base of the radiator to the thermostat, which regulates flow back into the engine. It's a genuine Land Rover hose for the Defender (2007-2016).

Which Defender does this radiator hose fit?

This radiator hose fits the Land Rover Defender from 2007 to 2016, covering VIN ranges (V)7A000001 to (V)BA999999 and (V)CA000001 onward. Check your VIN against these ranges to confirm fitment, as cooling hoses changed across the Defender's later build.

How many of these hoses are needed and what else should I check?

Typically one radiator hose to the thermostat is needed per vehicle, and it's sold individually. When fitting it on the Defender, it's worth renewing the worm-drive clips and inspecting the other radiator hoses, since they usually perish at a similar rate.

What are the signs this radiator hose needs replacing?

Radiator hoses usually need replacing when the rubber goes soft, swollen, cracked or weeps at the clip ends. On the Defender, a failing hose at the thermostat can cause coolant loss and overheating. Replace it if it feels spongy or shows splits.
