The upper radiator hose looks like it has collapsed. It is not totally closed and I do not have any engine heating issues. I was wondering if anyone else has the same thing? Will the hose open up if coolant need to flow? I checked my coolant level and it was good.

FourBeer,


Mine did the same thing. If you open the radiator cap (on the overflow bottle) air will get sucked in the cooling system and the hose will return to normal. The problem is the return vent on the cap is stuck. If you stick your finger under the cap and wiggle the little chrome piece you'll feel it break free. Mine kept doing it. I had to replace my cap.

Thanks for the reply.

Mine does it frequently too. Thanks for the advice.
