if you had a hose clamp, it means someone already replaced a clamp or hose before. Could have been wrong hose used, or hose clamp too tight. Should be spring clamps so hose can expand a bit as the metal tube it goes into expands when hot. (But I used hose clamps for a similar repair where I bypassed that rusted metal tube with proper transmission hose)

[@ChadHer]

I'm not the first owner so possible that it was replaced once.

[@roshi98]

Agreed. Was definitely "fixed" previously, probably had the same cracked hose, too. Trimming the hose that way is fine since there's still slack for contraction and shifting when in motion, but spring clamps are a must on pressurized lines because they apply more even holding force around the circumference of the hose while not over-tightening the connection.

Hope it work out for you

@ 6:45 what is that harness just above the hose? My serpentine belt got chewed up and snapped that hose and damged that harness. Any ideas ?

[@ChadHer]

I think that’s the fog light harness

[@Swokpmund]

Thanks for the detailed video. Mine leaks from the other end of the hose just top of the transmission.. any suggestions ?
Cheers,

[@ChadHer]

You can do what I did but opposite end. If you don’t have room to work on it. Simply just unplug the hose completely out of the car and then do your cutting and install it back on.

[@Swokpmund]

@@ChadHer thank you. I'll try it this weekend.
Great video.

What size was the hose and line?

[@ChadHer]

Not sure cuz I didn’t need to buy new one.

[@treeman9706]

What do you think about just skipping that metal part and connecting with rubber tube?

[@ChadHer]

If you can find one that fit than yes. I don’t have extra tube so this fix is easy n free.

[@angelisalive]

Will a lot of atf come out or only a little
Is it better to wait for the car to cool down so a lot doesn’t spill out ?

[@ChadHer]

I clamp my hose with locking plier so only little come out.
