I just blew my upper radiator hose...rather, the solid plastic connect pipe blew. Hairline crack and under pressure it spews.

Trying to find a new hose locally is nuts. Is SNG or the dealer the only option?

Sorry for rant. Just trying to get the Jag back on the road.

 

I have had good luck with SNG Barratt. I recently ordered parts for my 2008 XKR. Shipped same day and received in 2 days.

 

@V7Sport - Thanks. I think I will work with them if I can. I was able to bandage up the hose so as to drive the car over to my other garage until I can work on it.

 

Due diligence for the part number, you're likely yield many options for purchase via Google. Aftermarket cooling circuit parts're quite common and plentiful for the 5.0 litre as it's used in numerous models for over 14 years across Land Rover AND Jaguar...

 

Really? That would be great news if I could actually do the cross-referencing (is there a system I can access where I can run a search?) That would allow me to get the beast back driving much sooner.

The part I need is the C2P24285 which is the upper radiator hose. Can you help me with the cross-referencing?
