wrong part number for bottom radiator hose.

**folgore** · 06-10-2009

Hi all!

Be very careful when ordering a bottom radiator hose ( stilo 1.4 Active sport with A/C 55 plate ), on Eper.

Eper list it as part number 46791812 (810+025) the 025 means its got A/C.

Use part number 46847273 (normal?) bottom pipe instead, it is right.

Myself and 2 fiat dealers kept getting it wrong! I finally got the part number off the old pipe .

Don't always blame the parts guys for getting it wrong , sometimes its duff information on Eper .

My Eper is dated 21.06.2005 DVD19 2.9.0. Also I have a later edition and it shows this wrong number and of course FIAT`s latest Eper shows wrong info too.

You'll save yourself £48.00 !

P.S. my car uses PINK Paraflu antifreeze! I never heard of that before.
I always used the blue stuff in previous Fiats. Anyone know why its different?

they use it becasue washer fluid is usually blue, so you can tell all the liquids just by looking at them, saves costly mistakes by numptys that cant read

all my fiats and alfas have always had pink coolant

Pink para flu carries more inhibitors compared to the blue ..pink is the one to pore in if you want it to last you 5years :)..50/50 mix with distilled water if you really want to be picky or an empty pocket..lol.. dont mix the two [pink and blue ]or you will end up with a blocked water system and a load of mush in the rad..
