200 series heater hose leak (1 Viewer)

[dualcabhj75]

Recently noticed the heater hoses leaking on my 200. Not sure if anyone has posted about this issue. Since these trucks are getting up there in age, this might be a more frequent problem. Here’s a couple pictures I snapped and part numbers.
Part # 87209-60C10
Part # 87209- 60C01

Did you also replace the T connectors? There are a number of posts on here about doing that.

Heater Hose T's (200k miles)

Hey everyone. Just had the Heater Hose T's replaced out my by LX570. Texas car, no abuse, etc. Dealer was well aware of the 100 series issues (as most of us are), and advised that the 200 does not seem to have similar issues. They recommended against replacing the T's. They replaced hoses...

I purchased the whole assembly.
They come with new t’s already assembled.

Were the rubber hoses leaking or did the heater T’s crack?

The t’s cracked. And I noticed the clamps were not as tight as they should be.

Good to know.

do these go back to do age, or heat, or a typical 200 series problem?

It appears to be a problem with LC200's before the model year 2013 vehicles. Part number and material of construction were changed for the model year 2013 vehicles and beyond.

The complete hose/T sets evidently ALL include the upgraded/newer T's, but some/most? of the replacement T's purchased separately still have the old T's with the material which is more prone to failure.

TL;DR: If you have a MY 2013 or newer LC200 this is not an issue.

Appreciate it


Another thing to be concerned about my Land Cruiser. With the ever growing list, a Range Rover seems more reliable.
