    Re: R5 GTT Hose Kits

    Hi, has anyone else had problems with these splitting? I have had two pipes out of separate sets split. Is there any warranty with them? Or am I being heavy handed?

    Many thanks

    They do offer 12 months warranty according to their ebay store, but you'd have to send them back to china..........perhaps not worth the paper its written on - if you get my drift!

    Would like to know myself if people have had problems with them??? because i am looking into buying a set!

    I know Scratcher had his water hose bleed nipples sorted out by sfs, due to leaking - if i'm not mistaken?!

    But certainly wasn't aware of any splitting???????????

    Re: R5 GTT Hose Kits

    Mine leaked from the bleed nipples due to the holes being punched to big in the silicone.
    One split slightly when attaching to the bottom of the header tank. Hose that goes from bottom of rad to water pump is too long and so puts a kink in it, restricting water flow.

    Re: R5 GTT Hose Kits

    Had no trouble with the bleed nipples on mine, the bottom rad hose was too long but and quick slice with a stanley knife sorted that, otherwise can't fault em, I've even bought a new oil breather set and telephone hose from ASI

    I've only just seen this topic was up again.

    The hoses I got leaked very badly from both bleed nipples. I took them into SFS who compared it to their old style hoses with the same type of nipple. There should be a washer between the plys in the hose (a solif bit for the nipple to seal against) but ASI hadn't put it in so I just got the SFS ones with the new style nipples.

    I contacted ASI a few times about the problem and never had a reply. I didn't worry too much since the other hoses were all good and the price was so cheap.
    I managed to cram some silicone sealant around them and they do seal now, but I've only kept them as spares.

    Oh, also... about 67% of the hoses came too long and needed trimming. Mostly the rad hoses.

    Re: R5 GTT Hose Kits

    Ive been having problems with my top rad hose ..it was pissing badly under where the bleed nipple is ... ive replaced it with my standard hose at the mo ..does anyone know how to sort this? ...im thinking take apart the nipple base (giggle) and put a rubber seal in before the bleed nipple base sits.

    Just thought id give you all the heads up

    Re: R5 GTT Hose Kits

    The top rad hose on mine split right next to the stat and no it wasn't the jubilee clip it was the rounded ridge of the stat that cut through, explain that one

    I'm going back to SFS thanks, spent too much time at the road side cus of old rubber hoses, I don't fancy the next 6 months breaking down every other trip cus of a cheap silicone hose
