I've used many dayco hoses with zero issues. What problems have you ran into?No offense intended, but I’d rather reuse 15 yr old OE radiator hoses than use any aftermarket Dayco hoses.
OE and aftermarket (from the same company) are a completely different animal.Dayco is OEM for Lexus, use and buy with confidence.
Fitment is generally terrible. Same with Gates. Neither of them last.I've used many dayco hoses with zero issues. What problems have you ran into?

This is exactly why I returned dayco hoses when putting a radiator in my own personal vehicle (2003 accord with 200k on it at the time). I opted to reuse my oem hoses, still were in good shape and didn’t have pin holes in them from their plastic hangers. The holes (for my application) would have been beyond the radiator / housing necks so I’m sure they would’ve leaked. If the holes land on the neck of your cooling system parts, maybe they’d be ok, but I didn’t like that personally.I recently got a Dayco top radiator hose from an auto parts store that start with the letter 'A'. It was dangling with gobs of other hoses like a bunch of bananas deep in the parts stack forrest. When I inspected it the rubber hose had been perforated very near one end with a thin plastic thread loop to allow it to be hanging. I bought it anyway mildly confident it wouldn't make a difference since the tiny orifice would be occluded by the radiator neck.
I was correct and the hose didn't leak but that begs the question; Why put a hole anywhere in a tube meant to flow hot pressurized liquid?
Wow! Who's the rocket scientist who put the pinhole past the point where the radiator neck ends?! I have used Dayco on various cars over the years, and all have worked at least as long as I owned the car. When they had pinholes/hangers they were always within a few mm of the end and did not cause any problems.This is exactly why I returned dayco hoses when putting a radiator in my own personal vehicle (2003 accord with 200k on it at the time).

I’ve seen plenty of hoses hang by metal hangers, they just bend the hose end into it and let the metal expand a bit to grip the hose from inside. No need to hang by a plastic tie that punctures the hose. I’d have returned it even if it was only on the neck / spout areas, just wouldn’t feel right about using them.Wow!

I also recall seeing numerous hoses hanging in the local parts stores when I was a kid in the 70s...apparently hanging them was the norm back then!
