Mazda2 DE 1.5L MZR ZY-VE Engine - Heater Hose Connector Leak

[OZCorolla_x]

The MAZDA2 runs hot and for a 2009 "plastic & hoses" are getting old.

D6516124YB Top Connector & Hose
D6516124X Bottom Connector & Hose
D65161240 Connector Only

Anyone else had a Coolant Leak from the Heater Hose Connectors? The leak for mine has developed over the last 600km or so....

Fig: Heater Bottom Connector Leak

Fig: Heater Bottom Connector Leak Mark on top Connector also

So probably up for two new Connectors & Hoses...
