20575356 Cross-Reference — Molded Lower Radiator Hose - 2.5 ID

20575356 is the lower radiator hose Volvo put on a mess of VNL and VN trucks, and it's the one that always cracks right where it snakes past the fan shroud. 2.5" ID molded hose, not straight rubber tubing you cut and clamp - it's shaped to route correctly the first time.

What You're Getting

This is a molded lower radiator hose, meaning it's got bends and curves built into the rubber to match the factory routing between the radiator outlet and the water pump inlet on VNL and VN series trucks. 2.5" inside diameter. It's not a universal hose you fight into shape with a heat gun - the mold does the work.

Volvo used this same hose across a wide chassis run, which is why you'll see it under a handful of different Volvo part numbers depending on model year and how the parts catalog got updated over time. Same hose, same routing, just relabeled at some point.

If your old hose is cracked, soft, or swelling at the clamps, this is a straight swap - assuming your cooling system matches what we've got listed here.

Why These Numbers Cross

20575356 is the headline Volvo number, but 20990764, 21127149, 8086454, 23287162, and F02516S352 all point back to the same physical hose. That's normal - Volvo re-numbers parts when they update a service bulletin or shift suppliers, but the hose molded to fit that engine bay doesn't change shape.

Where you need to slow down: hose ID and routing can look almost identical across model years but not be identical. A 2.5" hose that's a half-inch off in a bend radius will still clamp on, but it'll rub the frame rail or kink under load - and you won't notice until it's overheating on a grade.

Surest way to confirm: pull the old hose and read the number stamped or molded into it, or run your VIN. Don't eyeball it against a picture online and call it good.

Frequently asked questions

Does 20575356 fit my VNL 670?

Likely, but confirm with your VIN or by reading the number off the hose you're pulling out. Volvo ran this hose across VNL and VN trucks for a long stretch, but engine and radiator configs shifted, so don't assume based on the model name alone.

Is this the same as Volvo 23287162?

Yes, 23287162 cross-references to the same hose as 20575356 - it's a later Volvo part number for the same molded piece. Physically it's the same hose, just relabeled in the catalog.

My hose doesn't have a visible part number - now what?

Measure the ID at the ends, count the bends, and check where it attaches on both ends against your radiator and water pump. If you can get us a VIN, that's faster and more reliable than measuring in a driveway.
