Default Hmmm..then you might have just blown a end cap off. Well, enough
to make a huge leak.

Default That's what my money is on. It sounded like the driver side IC to me.
I was confident it was going to be a hose, but then when I got it up, everything looked fine ; (

I had just checked those hoses last night too (oil change) so I couldn't believe it.

Haha, factory warranty is up at the end of the month too : )

Default Has anyone figured out how to beef up that crimped endcap?
I guess blorping epoxy on it wouldn't do much good?

Default I don't know, but I plan on getting a look at the bad one to see where it actually broke.
Assuming that it is the source of the failure.
