Plastic coolant connections are consistently subjected to heat shock, corrosive substances, & chemical degradation. Considering the importance of adequate engine cooling, coolant fitting upgrades are always a wise investment. ECS has developed a cast-aluminum replacement for the fragile plastic coolant split pipe fitted to the VW MK4 1.8T. This highly failure-prone fitting can be responsible for a sudden, major coolant leak – over-heating engine internals and causes catastrophic damage. ECS-assembled kits including installation hardware and coolant are also available.

The OEM water pipe is made of plastic, like many other components in your cooling system. This plastic becomes brittle over time and exposure to constant temperature change. Instead of installing another plastic piece that is bound to fail, ECS engineered a permanent solution; Our Billet Aluminum Water Pipe. We started with the OEM piece to ensure we get all the critical dimensions. Machined from 6061 aluminum for a strong yet lightweight pipe and anodized to protect against corrosion. This is designed to be the last water pipe you'll ever need to replace.
