    Dirk, you need to get that tube back in shape! Your local plumber is the expert and it may likely be a five minute permanent fix.
    Do not put an extra tight clamp on a dis-formed pipe, it will collapse under the pressure and you gain nothing.

    Just wait until his CVT starts acting up some day. The resulting thread may crash the interwebz.

    Well called the service center at the dealership. They said my warranty service was rejected but that they fighting it for me because of the engine replacing was the actual cause of the bent hose. Ill hear back from them again tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

    Weird update, I checked the G4 a minute ago and it hasnt leak at all I dont believe. I checked near the hose connections by the firewall and didnt feel any moisture either? The dealership said they clamped the hoses off better but I guess didnt bother to retest the system to see if they stopped the leak? I might not need to do anything after all. Ill check the car again in a day and see if any fluid has left the reservior.
