I have one of the few Evo's that falls into the Campaign # 05V335000 Turbo coolant hose replacement. If you can get access to the actual campaign info, i'm looking for the replacement Part Number.

Why?

I work 6 days a week, 90 miles from the closest dealer. I don't have the time to drop the car off...I work as a Toyota technician, and want to **purchase** the part and install it myself. I called the closest dealer and they never called me back. Basically they tried to claim they couldn't sell me a a part that was under recall. That's just plain stupid. If I was a bodyshop trying to repair an '05 that had already had the campaign completed, but was damaged in a front end collision...would they not sell it to then? This isn't a matter of liability. I just want to prevent the hose from failing and leaving me with a green mess.

Found the part number I needed. Thanks

 

Share it with the rest of us in case someone else ends up needing it.

 

Turbo Water Feed Hose: MD363256

They get 1.6 flat rate hours for the hose according to the campaign instructions...That's good for a recall item. -Gabe

 

Is there a way to find out what vin# ranges are affected by this recall?

I've never recvd anything, but I may have just never been notified...

TIA

 

Is that the part number for the upadated and improved hose???

Just asking and wanting to be sure...

 

Yes that's the updated part number.

 

Here's the recall info for those that need it.

 

Several years ago I bought a Mitsu recall campaign part and installed it because I didn't trust the dealer to do the work. I had to pay for the part but otherwise - no problem.
