Thanks for the link. BTW...it's a shame the steel CAC tubes idea fizzled.

So with the EHM and no oil going into the CAC, the OEM hoses should be fine, right?

Add the GDE tune to that, and yes.

There seems to be no problem with the new revised OEM hoses. I've got over 70000 miles on the passenger side hose and 10K on the driver's side. There is no sweating or softening, so it seems as though Jeep got something right. As far as I know there have been no blow outs with the new hoses, but several Samcos have burst. Just something to consider.

Does anyone know if these revised hoses were used in new production and if so when the switch took place :?:

Thanks

They were not used in new production. If I recall correctly, they were upgraded in early 2007.

Were they orange on the inside? When I pulled off my old ones, the inner liner was orange.

The problem was the intercooler hose. You guys were right. Split up near the CAC outlet. 75,000 miles.

Dealer says EGR looks to have been replaced already. Thanks for the help guys.
