Hello everyone! has anybody encountered breaking their radiator hose or any hose in the water line after driving their cars hard.
It happened to me thrice. On my way home I was driving like 140 to 200kms in a 30km drive. The next day I noticed that I broke a radiator hose. Whats up with that? At first I thought it was just normal wear and tear but the second time I broke the hose at the back of the engine, the third time it was the main radiator hose again. The common denominator I think is everytime driving it hard maybe its related to the water pressure or temp.
Guys I need your expertise on this? Thanks
