I have an 06 that there is a little piece of rubber water line that is leaking next to the turbo. It connects two hard lines. Does any one know what it is called and the dimensions of it are? This is my only vehicle at the moment. I don't want to tear it out before I have the parts on hand.

Here is what I am taking about.

72 people have looked at this and no one knows???

 

That's the heater core supply line. any heater hose will work don't know the size just take it to the parts store. It's usually a loose hose clamp leaking!

 

I had a few minutes today and ran by Dodge. They are adamant that it has to be a special hose because of the heat from the manifold. The part is $20 but they shortened it to keep it from leaking. Now it is twice as hard to install. $80 to install it and whatever fluid to top it off. Also it is kinda hard to take it off and go to the parts store when this is my only vehicle.

 

They don't call it a stealership for nothing! Did you try and tighten the hose clamps?
I've never found one with a actual hole always loose clamps!

 

Mine is coming apart

 

If you unbolt the bracket on the back you can use a pry bar to get a little flex in the line.
Also use WD-40 to get it on easier. Good thing is you can slide it way past then align and slide it onto the other pipe.
Great time to upgrade the exhaust manifold and turbo!
