I have a 2008 Dodge NCV3 with a cracked driver's side turbo hose. The rubber is cracked at the metal end of the hose. It gave me the occasional limp home home performance until I spotted a small amount of oil on the outside of the hose.
Thanks to all who have contributed to the closed threads on how to spot this problem.
My question is should I replace with a new hose ( even thought it was produced on 1/16/08, it appears to have the new "?" shaped hose) or do I try the Riordanco ADAP09 Turbo Hose Adapter?
It looks like the trade off might be tearing the stock hose again (the van is an RV with only 13000 miles on it) or blowing the hose clamp off the Riordanco fitting. Thoughts?
