I just noticed I am getting a coolant leak on the passenger side and know it is coolant. The hoses on that side have been replaced but has anyone ever seen this break from engine movement and cause a leak?

Also, does anyone know if this is still available from Toyota? It is not available on Partsouq.

I will get down there and snug up the clamps and move them closer to the ends as well.

The factory clamps work extremely well and are on another level compared to worm clamps. But t clamps are also much better than work clamps.

When the hoses, thermostat were replaced I had the option of waiting for OEM clamps but went with worm and it is now biting me in the arse.

Yup, and snug them up, they bite you even harder.

If you have a leaking hose with worm drive clamps, time for new hoses, and new clamps. They tend to pinch the hose as they don't tighten evenly.

Really hard to go past OEM spring clamps.
Unless you abuse then removing them, most of the time they are good to reuse
