ve coolant leak

[XU1_VE6]

Clicked through the search function, there is a few comments on this, 07 ve alloytech with coolant leak/weepish drip on drivers side from what looks like a heater hose. Would it be the plastic fitting leaking? or do I just need to replace the clamps? Only had the car a week, so still covered by stat warranty so can take it back to dealer but if its only simply replacing a clamp I don't mind paying.

Replace the clamps with worm drive type hose clamps.

Hi mate, very common on the VE's. My 6L V8 is doing the same thing, had it at the mechanic today. Fixing it on friday when it goes for another dyno run and tweak.

get both the hoses replaced. putting clamps sometimes fixes it but they will only leak later on down the track.. theres revised ones out now anyway..
