Need to replace my upper hose on my 95 530. Looked on BMA's website...they have an upper that says it goes from the radiator to the water pump and a lower that says the same thing.
What do I need if I want to replace both hoses? Is that correct?
TIA

The upper and lower hoses both attach at the water pump on the V-8.
Consider the 4 or 5 hoses at the driver's rear of the engine for the reservoir and heater control solenoids, auxilliary water pump too.
If you have an automatic transmission, some models have two rear hoses that go down on either side of the back of the engine to a transmission heat exchanger block.

Then you can search BMA's website by the correct part number...then you'll know that you're ordering the correct part. :D

All you need to do is enter the last 7 digits of your car's VIN then click the appropriate buttons to find the part numbers & exploded diagrams specific for your car.
