I'm not sure if we've ever discussed a water pump failure in the 960 series, but one would wonder if this might be contributing to the problem, considering you've changed out just about everything else, save for the hoses. I understand that these pumps can have subtle way of failing with some seepage, but especially increased play beginning in the pump. If it's tight you should be able to take ahold of it and attempt to 'wiggle' it with little play in it. If it's going south, I would wonder what driving symptoms it might manefest.

Just a thought...
