It seems this car knows when I'm out of town or on a trip! The only time a freakin hose decides to creack or break is when I'm gone! This time it was the a hose coming from what looks like the water pump on the back of the block up to the heater control system (I assume). I've already replaced that little conglomoration (up by the firewall, drivers side). I'm guessing I should just do all the hoses now at 135K instead of one by one when they decide to pop?
I'm getting too familiar with the smell of hot antifreeze. Luckily this time it broke by the clamp so I could push it up and re-clamp it to get it home. Still love the 740 though!
