I used a length of hose that suited what I needed as the factory hose was too short.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hey guys, Had a leaking coolant reservoir cap and excess coolant dumping out of the reservoir drainage nipple right onto the exhaust, turns out the drainage tube is missing (#10 in pic). Just ordered a new one, but not sure where to route it. Seems pretty short, so it might not even be necessary, but I'd like to route it to the correct location if it's purpose is to keep coolant off of something important. Any tips? Thanks, Chris

POST 2Original post

I would think the part when replaced should be exactly where it is supposed to be. No tips needed IMHO.

POST 3Original post

I routed mine down so it extends below the engine. I used a length of hose that suited what I needed as the factory hose was too short.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
