I replaced the water hose to AOS, I bit the bullet and bought the mouse ears crimping tool for the crimped hose clamps in that spot over the screw type because there is so little clearance between the clamp and serpentine belt.

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I had my water pump replaced a few weeks ago. They mentioned that the AOS coolant hose was cracked at the end where it goes into that coupler. They cut the end as a temporary fix but after a long road trip it's leaking. My Tip Cab requires engine out to replace the hose, so I'll wait for something else before I do that. I want to get another hose and use a coupler to extend it. What size hose and coupler do I need? BTW - it's not the fixture that's leaking as I replaced it with the Spiegel version.a few years ago.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

For anyone making this change, don't use cheap radiator worm gear clamps. They cut into the hose which will eventually leak. I had the job done when my car was in for something else. I'm surprised they didn't use a proper clamp. I went to my local Porsche dealer and they gave me (yes free) 3 clamps. After trimming the hose, I needed to lengthen it. I bought a 5/16" (7.9mm) inner diameter fuel line hose from Autozone and a 3/8" (9.5mm) brass coupler from Home Depot. That's why I needed 3 clamps.

I replaced the water hose to AOS, I bit the bullet and bought the mouse ears crimping tool for the crimped hose clamps in that spot over the screw type because there is so little clearance between the clamp and serpentine belt. Then I got the UAOS and it made it all unnecessary.
