Thanks for sharing this. I just did the water pump on my cruze and I noticed that there was air trapped in the top of the radiator. Open the white plug on the passenger size radiator tank with the engine off and the coolant cap open. You can hear the air escape. Then you can see the coolant drip out of that connection. Air in the coolant will cause the system to run hot causing additional wear and tear on the gaskets or crack the plastic pieces.

The hose you mention isnt leaking the first hose connected to the resovlver will it cause the car to over heat if there is a leak

[@user-or1uu7yt9n]

Just wondering if the radiator needs to be vented at any point because there is a nylon bolt on the upper passenger side of the radiator that is for venting the radiator ? Great video !!

[@ahindia6154]

Thanks for the video and how much you charge for labor work hours ?

[@gradyrm237]

Is possible to flat sand whole part to get gasket to compress again. If no holes anywhere. ?

[@graybentley]

Thanks but if you would say the name on the hoses and parts that your taking off would be helpful. Thats what I needed help with the names.

Buy an aluminum one.

[@esotericjahanism5251]

after looking up this part I found that a few companies make an aluminium version of this part that costs about the same

Already replaced 3 of these in my Cruze. Next time I'm buying the aluminum one

[@EddieLeal]

Mine is leaking around the water pump pulley. Small leak.

Your video was a great help...good job

I’d replaced two of these on my wife’s 1.4l cruze, due to the the summer temps destroying plastic components in the southwest US and then by the third time, I got an aluminium one that had clearly used the plastic version to make the mold and then had it’s sealing faces machined later. Touch wood, it’s been great so far and I’d definitely recommend it.

Hi. Verry good job.😊 Can you tellme how to the torg of screew. Thanks😊

[@jbuck1975]

I can't see where mine is leaking 😢. I don't know what to do. Shop replaced resivor. But it still leaking somewhere. Now that it's hot it's leaking faster. But don't see any

[@EddieLeal]

53K?! GM can never get a car right. Always has to be one thing or another.

[@EddieLeal]

Aluminum would have been a better replacement. Plastic does not do well with the kind of heat that engine produces.
