Default 98 V70 XC. Upper radiator hose leak
HI...can anyone help. I have a 98 V70XC turbo. I have a small leak from the upper radiator hose (radiator side). I've replaced it, adjusted the clamp tension several times. The radiator input looks fine, no cracks, dirt or chips. Why is this still leaking!!!

Maybe the radiator is bad and it is leaking at the joint where the tanks meet the aluminum.
