Surely something is missing on my Grenadier? There is no way Ineos intended for the coolant hoses to be loose and hanging from the upper hoses like this. I found at least one clip that my hose was not in but clearly was supposed to be. But I can’t see any others. There are spring clamps rubbing on bare hoses, hose rubbing on other parts and a small leak at one of the plastic couplers already.

Thanks for the heads up. Mine was/is same. The hose had come out of it's lower retaining clip, probably the same one as yours. I put it back in, but still loose. I didn't see other obviously missing clips, so I zip tied a few hoses together.

I found another thread on here talking about this as well. Seems several people had to get new hoses and such. And maybe there is a campaign to fix this on certain vin numbers. My truck is due for service so I will see what they say.

I had the same issue and posted on another thread. No campaign to fix that as far as I’m aware. I’ve used cable ties in places to stop the movement.

Can you take a pic on how you attached them?

I learnt of this problem half way in on my African tour whilst reading the forum and sure enough my coolant pipes were flopping around all over the place as others had found but up to then I hadn’t realised. . I’ve fixed with cable ties in various places and all good so far but in my view there should be an Ineos fix as there shouldn’t be that much movement in the hoses.
Hope you can make sense of the photos as they aren’t the clearest.

Glad to know others are seeing the same issues. I posted another thread on some wrap I used to protect my coolant hoses before I ran into this thread and here is some pictures of what I used if that is helpful.
