## 🔌 Function

Turns the coolant flow through a fixed 90 degree bend, taking the circuit round an obstruction without kinking a hose.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Coolant weeping from either joint under pressure
-   Corrosion pitting on the outside of the bend
-   Crusted deposits building up at the flange faces
-   Cracks at the bend radius
-   Reduced flow if the inside of the elbow has scaled

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   The angle is what decides the order — pipe elbow 3830257 is the 30 degree alternative at 0.551 kg, so check the routing on your engine before ordering
-   Fit new seals or hoses at both ends and support the elbow properly, since an unsupported elbow cracks at the bend
