   The tension clamp on the lower rad hose has got a bit weak and is leaking coolant under pressure.
   
   Called Citroen and they don't sell the tension clamps anymore, only jubilee's.
   
   Are jubilee's OK for coolant hoses? Don't want them cutting in as they can't expand etc.
   Or does anyone know somewhere that sells the constant tension clamp and what size is needed?

   I always use jubilee clamps instead of those tension ones and have never had a problem.

   What's all this talk of Mikalor clamps, jubilee fittings, etc?!?!
   
   I thought you were saxo owners?
   
   Alex, a cable tie is what you require. In certain circumstances, perhaps 2.
