    I had just had my belts done at 130,000km (10 years) and replaced this housing at the same time - the old one is fine and I now have it in my spares - I would suggest it be done when you do your belts done. Given the price, I really do not see the need for the metal one.

    Is the water cooling outlet a straight forward part to change out or are there any traps for the unwary , might as well change mine out and keep the current one for a spare as it is not leaking yet at 169k . Thanks Allen .

    Allen totally easy. Just have to remove the intake throttle body and a few hoses and then 8mm 1/4" drive socket , extension and ratchet.

    I assume that's during a coolant change, as I'd expect a loss of coolant and air needing to be bled, or not?

    Thanks to all who post on these things...

    This part failed on me last week. Intermittent "Low Coolant" warnings (that quickly disappeared within 30 seconds), and some small drops of coolant on the garage floor.

    8.5 years old, 112,000kms.

    They replaced another suspect hose ($110) at the same time, so the total bill was around $950.

    That seems awfully high.

    coolant outlet housing outlet housing failyre

    I have a triumph rover outlet fitted. It was nearly 2 years ago but I recall I only paid $500 fitted before a trip to the cape. The housing is machined from a single piece of marine grade aluminium. I have very happy with it knowing I can travel anywhere without worrying about a failure. Good insurance
