Can you believe I just read in AAA NY Car & Travel Magazine (comes with AAA dues) an article that suggests replacing all hoses every 4 years?! And that the failure rate triples in the fifth year. It goes on to describe how to inspect your hoses. Can you imagine any Volvo owner replacing hoses every 4 years?! It's possible though that with your mileage and radiator replacement that your hoses are good candidates for replacement.
