It was hard like it would be with heat and coolant flow but by no means rigid. I could still squeeze the hose. With the engine off is got softer. Hmm. Maybe I should get it hot again and check more thoroughly. With my 124 the upper hose was HARD and it would heat up to nearlt overheating in 2 miles of regular driving.
