Over 40 years of working on cars, this is the first time I've had a clamped hose leak. I think it might be that the Mercedes line has a liner in it and is more pressure resistant. I did put a tiny bit of silicon lube on the inlet to make it easier for the hose to slide off. I don't see how that would cause a leak though. I've ordered a new style of clamp and I'm going to M-B today to see if I can get that part or some line that will work.
It's probably $900.00 for that 4 inch piece! LOL
