The hose coming from the bottom of the radiator has split, and needs replacing. From what I could see, it looks like this one http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SUZUKI-Vitar ... b39&_uhb=1, however eBay also shows this one http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SUZUKI-Vitar ... 115wt_1139.

Do both these hoses apply, or is each one for a different variant?

Anybody know which hose I need?

There are 2 hoses on the bottom, with a metal piece in between

I would replace both and consider doing the top hose as well as a minimum, better still would be do all of them but thats a bit of a pain

Thanks Royce - thought that might have been the case.

I'll get both bottom hoses, especially considering the top hose blew yesterday morning, and the bottom hose yesterday afternoon! Coincidence or a common sequence of events?

Good on SWMBO for not letting it cook

Get a new cap as well, it might not be releasing pressure correctly
