My 3200's intake hoses (#382000467) have some cracks and are needed to be replaced.

My car is earlier one, so intake hoses are split into 3 pieces each side. #382000467, #382000481, #382000469 on the right, #382000467, #382000482, #382000469 on the left. Later cars are simpler. #382001481 on the right, #382001482 on the left.

Does anyone know the reliability of them? I think this is a good chance to replace the hoses to later ones. But if earlier ones are more reliable or have more performance, I don't want to replace them. I will just replace with new #382000467 then.

Thank you for the information. I know the product, but I like the OEM rubber hoses better. Rubber hoses stick to the metal and have airtight seal, thus more reliable.

That is very true... if you can still buy the original parts that's best option!

Silicone hoses don't stick to the metal, aren't air tight and breake earlier??
