My 2019 Subaru Legacy B4 had a swollen radiator hose (Images 1 & 2). My mechanic said it was installed backward and wasn't fully seated, so he reversed and refitted it. After a 50 km test drive, it looks like Images 3 & 4. Does this look like a proper fix, or is it just a temporary band-aid on a bigger problem?
