[s-cars] Moaning like a stuck piggie

Is that the owner or the hose that is moaning, Aaron?

The real question is why did you do that?  I have written every time  
this comes up
to repair the $500 "j" hose at HOH but you can buy the rack hose for ~  
$250 so,
given poor results with that repair, just buy new.

There has not been a good explanation of the problems with rebuilding  
that hose,
but there have been just too many that result in noise and pulsing in  
the rack.
Just buy new.  Probably the best price is here, but shop around:

Search this site by part number, not the online catalog-it is full of  
errors by mixing
A6/S6 parts and prices.  You can't call them-that gets you dealer  
prices.
