FAQs

How do I know if this hose fits my car?

Check your current hose or vehicle manual for OEM part numbers 2780902082 or A2780902082 to verify compatibility.

What is the length of this hose?

The Gates ANTK1272 hose measures 350mm in length.

Where does this hose install?

This hose is designed for the right side of the engine, connecting the air intake to the air filter assembly.

Do I need special tools to install this?

Generally, you only need a standard screwdriver or socket set to loosen and tighten the hose clamps.

Is this an OEM part?

It is a high-quality equivalent, designed to meet or exceed original equipment specifications for fit and performance.

Troubleshooting

Hose will not seat properly on the intake port

Ensure all old gasket material or debris has been removed from the port and the hose is correctly oriented for the right-side configuration.

Engine continues to show vacuum leak errors

Double-check that clamps are fully tightened and the hose is pushed completely onto the intake flanges without any pinched folds.

Pros and Cons

  • Durable construction resistant to engine bay temperatures
  • Precise fitment reduces installation time
  • Restores engine performance by eliminating vacuum leaks

Cons

  • Compatibility is limited to specific vehicle models using listed OEM numbers
  • Requires proper clamp tensioning during installation
  • Not compatible with aftermarket custom intake systems

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, confirm that your vehicle's OEM part number matches 2780902082 or A2780902082. To install:

  1. Ensure the engine is cool to prevent burns.
  2. Locate the old hose on the right side of the engine bay.
  3. Loosen the retaining clamps at both ends.
  4. Remove the old unit and inspect for debris in the intake path.
  5. Slide the new Gates hose into position and tighten clamps securely without over-torquing.

To care for your new hose, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or degreasers directly on the rubber, as these can accelerate surface degradation. During regular oil changes, perform a visual check for any signs of loosening or rubbing against nearby engine components.
