For my 2013 Geni Coupe 2.0T Premium I have replaced the radiator ( not a Hyundai genuine part) but the new radiator didn't come with the lower hose connector, part # 25485B.
The part is a plastic elbow with a built in spring clip which I could not get off the old rad without breaking out the spring and I csnnot get the new part onto my new radiator.
Is a speacial tool required or is brute force necessaary? I would expect it to slip on with minimal force but it's proving to be a pig. I have tried compressing the spring with my fingers and by placing a worm gear hose clamp around it to compress the outer spring but to no avail.
Any tips would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
