    I have one on my 2014 C-Man and did notice it's just a slip fit in the one hose but have not had it blow off yet. I'll be following your thread just in case.

    It seems to be fine for a few days and then either fitting pops off and the Clubman runs really rough. The last time the check engine light came on for a vacuum leak.

    Could it engine movement (torque), causing the hoses to pull off the fittings on the OCC?

    That is a theory but its not the hoses but the actual fittings.
