im going to try the synthetic approch 1st and if it brusts again i'll look into custom hoses. now i just got to wait for the dang hose to come....both dealers ive called say 3-5business days. My previous vechile was a 2000 Dodge Stratus SE 2.4L 4cyl, i had that car for 4 years and now my girlfriend has it and never had this issue.
