About this product
When heater hose performance matters, the HEPU TM7278 delivers — built to the same dimensional and material standards as the original part it replaces. The part is built to the following specification: Length [mm]: 450 mm, Colour: Ceramic, Material: 33, Inner Diameter 1 [mm]: Synthetic mm, Inner Diameter 2 [mm]: 20 mm. Each dimension is checked against the OEM reference to ensure the component seats and functions correctly first time. Compatible with AUDI vehicles; use the vehicle selector above to confirm exact fitment for your make, model, and engine variant. Fitment data is sourced from TecDoc, the authoritative European parts catalogue. This part supersedes original equipment references: 02-3023, 23771, 2422022, 765591 and 4 more. Matching these numbers confirms a like-for-like replacement with no loss of function. HEPU is a recognised supplier of automotive replacement components to independent workshops and dealer networks across Europe. All parts are sourced from authorised distribution channels and carry full manufacturer traceability — you receive exactly the same component supplied to professional garages and dealer workshops. If fitment or specifications do not match your vehicle, our technical team can help identify the correct alternative — use the vehicle selector or contact us with your VIN for a guaranteed-fit recommendation. Replacing worn components on schedule preserves your vehicle's safety, reliability, and resale value — and aftermarket parts from established brands deliver OEM-equivalent performance at a fraction of the dealer price. Every part is dispatched with tracked delivery and a 14-day money-back guarantee with hassle-free returns.
Heater Hose buying guide
Why replace this part?
Heater hoses carry hot coolant from the engine to the heater core and back. A split heater hose causes coolant loss, loss of cabin heating, and engine overheating if the leak is significant enough to deplete the coolant level.
Signs you need a replacement
- Loss of cabin heat
- coolant leak inside or under the car
- sweet coolant smell inside the passenger compartment
- engine overheating
- soft or spongy hose texture when squeezed
When to replace
Every 4–5 years or 60,000–80,000 miles. Rubber hoses harden with age — inspect annually for cracks, swelling, or softness at the fittings.
