It may be normal for all I know, but it does feel weakened in that area. Location of the issue is under the white tape that I added to locate it later.
Thanks again for your help.
it does look like radiator return hose.... https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...e/64216951946/ |
That's Item 1 in the lefthand schematic I posted. P/N 64219178427. The best way to get that off the heater core is from the bottom. From the top, you need to move the Item 2 hose out of the way. The Item 1 hose has one of those PIA BMW plastic hose connectors on it.
