My 2011 machine has all push-on fittings and they continuously leak. Short term fix is to cut the line and re-insert, but they pull the hoses so tight that you can only do that once or twice. Plastic hose and push-on fittings is the cheapest you can buy and also the cheapest to install -which is probably why they use them.
I already had to replace the fittings on the grease tube after just one month, it was constantly spewing grease all over the components in the air panel. Terrible design choice. I used a barbed fitting with a hose clamp as a quick fix but need a better permanent fix.
I think the only solution is to get rid of all of the push-on fittings. What is the best solution? Compression? Hard lines?
