My Suburban has one of those in plastic that ended up failing up by the
airport last year. Luckily mama still had AAA coverage on it so got it
flatbedded home after it puked all the coolant on the airport access
road. It was a bugger to replace, and really annoys me that a cheap
plastic fitting can cause a fatal error. Oh well, the first one lasted
15 years, maybe this one will go a few more years, but I wonder what
other fatal parts lie within.

I know that hose on the firewall of the XKE. I believe the XJs had them too.
Imagine my surprise when I found the W140 has a very similar tee fitting just
like the Jags! They fail just as catastrophically in Mercedes, too.
