Hi, I’m looking for a pair of heater matrix to thermostat housing coolant pipes for a 1.6 AEE engine. As mine are not the correct ones for the car and are stretched across the airbox.

I would also be keen on the 2 radiator pipes and header tank pipe as well if their available also?

Does anyone have a secondhand pair/set for sale or can point me in the direction of a new set please?

Regards Rob

In case that you can not find you can use aftermarket hoses like EPDM which stands for higher temperatures:

Temperature range: -20°C to +120°C

Temperature range: -20°C to +140°C

Temperature range: -40°C to +210°C

I know there’s always options and I’m not trying to keep the truck super original but the pipes I’m looking for are highly formed. It comes out of the airbox at 90 degrees travels about 20mm then turns another 90 degrees and so on. I wouldn’t be able to get that type of shaping from a straight pipe, if that makes sense.

I’m amazed that I can’t find any pipes new or old anywhere. My thoughts are to cut and put a piece of copper pipe in there as a last measure.

I was only able to find PNs. But the hoses have been sold out everywhere.

Thank you for looking.

I ran into the same issue when I looked but found schematics very sketchy on lllparts and didn’t feel an overwhelming sense of have the correct pipe.

It surprising how the simplest of parts could become the rocking horse **** everyone’s looking for.

Hopefully I can drop on a 1.6 that’s being broken and the pipes not cut.

Same in 1.3 ,it's almost impossible to find the hoses connected to the heat matrix.

I pray that i will never need a change of those two even the one from engine to the lowest part of radiator.
