Suggestion · Original poster
In addition to changing my thermostat and water pump, I would like to change this hose as well (the one that attaches directly to the water pump–please note that it is not the thermostat hose I'm referring to).

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

In addition to changing my thermostat and water pump, I would like to change this hose as well (the one that attaches directly to the water pump–please note that it is not the thermostat hose I'm referring to).
Here is the part number:
996-106-850-05-M100
Water Hose, Coolant Expansion Tank to Return Pipe to Water Pump, (3-Way Hose).
Is this easy to change? Does someone have a straightforward guide I can follow?
I am a DIY guy, and I'm determined to do this myself.
BTW, I don't see a guide to replace this hose on the Pelican Parts site.
Thank You!

Ummmm...I don't get it. Undue clamps, remove hose. Replace hose and install clamps. Just reverse what you did to remove it. If you are going to use the spring clamps, install them first before replacing hose.
DB JOE and Roadblock:
I've replaced hoses and clamps before. I get the general concept. A no brainer actually.
But this one is not out of the car yet and looks a bit more involved.
Is there anything else you have to remove first to install this particular hose?
Or, are you simply guessing and making comments about a job you've never done before?

I just did mine, there is nothing to it. You might have to remove a couple other hoses to make it easier, but you can figure it out once you get your head under the car. The top connections are very straight forward. Good luck
I think one of the main "tricks" is to be very careful of old plastic connectors while you're in there - they break easily due to age and heat cycling in the engine compartment. Good Luck
Be careful when you suggest a job is too simple...
That hose changed part numbers at some point, and doesn't fit well in older setups. You may need to replace one of the hard pipes as well. Read this thread...

This is critical to check if you have a '98 or '99 model year.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
