Is it leaking from the actual fitting or has the hose failed? If it’s the fitting I would think it’s a new cooler job.

If just the hose was replaced last time and not the cooler, chances are the threads on the cooler will be shot, hence the leak with a new hose.

I just had a spare cooler refurbished for £96, new ends fitted, pressure tested and re painted, being fitted now as the end of the long metal pipe had corroded leaking oil cooler everywhere

I never asked about pipes, just didn’t want to buy a new cooler for the sake of having new ends fitted
