Radiator Hose

I mentioned a few weeks ago about occasional wet spots beneath the truck. Confirmed by dealer this morning that its a leaking upper hose. Gonna get it replaced tomorrow morning. $200 for materials and labor.
Oil change and tire rotation done today. Inspection showed brakes, etc were still in good shape.
Bought this 08 in Nov 08 and now up to 46,980 miles!

Have them give you the old one...after all you bought it.

New one will have white on the end nearest the motor.

Be sure they give you the rest of the bottle they use to filler back up..you bought that too.

Also be sure that you watch it as there will most likely be air in the system and your coolant will crept a bit.
