Hi everyone!

I'm new to the forum; this is my first post.

I was doing a maintenance check under the hood and discovered that there was some sort of green leak (?) eating away at my radiator hose.

Can someone please provide any advice or guidance? I've attached 2 pictures.

Also - I've tried doing a search to ensure that I didn't open up an old thread but I did not find anything.

Thanks in advance!

No worries bro this is very common on all of the 07-08 V36 models. Just get a new hose and 2 new clamps and you should be fine. I don't think the factory clamps are holding tight enough to be honest.

I went to home depot and purchased two new host clamps and just installed them next to the exsiting clamps two years ago. Still holding up fine
