Hi,
Here is a tip. I bought a new cooling hose for mt TD upgrade from the 'P' guy. Here is what it looks like just 1 year later after it started leaking. Now I have a good German hose. Down with Chinese junk!!
Funny thing is now some meyle( OEM ) is being made in China !

BTW: Was there any diesel fuel dripping on that hose?
How cheap are they from prothe? They're pretty reasonable on autohausaz.com for meyle and crp.
Meyle GP's last about a year for me, I change 'em as they burn out. I have two left and when they're gone I'm getting duraterms

.
The hose above has been replaced with a three piece type using a plastic t fitting
I could of done these three lines in molded silicone, but I dont think anyone here will pay 225.00 for three assys
