Exclamation I'm confused if I should replace my water pipe or my coolant reservoir hose!!!HELPP!!

HI everyone,,
I have a problem as it shown in the attached pictures

I was driving my c230 2005 but suddenly the computer asked me to check the coolant level. I immediately stopped my car and I opened the hood then I found the coolant reservoir hose wasn't plugged to the pipe and the water was falling from the pipe strongly.

what should I DO??? I plugged the hose again but it didn't work it always gets out from the pipe. Some people said to me that i Have to change the water pipe, which is in the attachment and I marked it.

Plz experts my car is waiting for me to turn it on because I can't drive it until I fix it.

just follow my DIY instructions, you just need the small plastic part and insert in the hose and heater pipe

to drive in the meantime plug both ends with a golf tee, it worked for me while waiting for the part to be ordered

Just replace the host connector

I just had the exact same problem solved. There is no need to replace the whole pipe/hose between the expansion tank and the engine, there is a hose connector

http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/se...Hose+Connector)

which I just picked up for the same price from the dealer. It is very easy to replace, just remove the clip, untighten the clap from the hose, in my case it broke on both side, in the engine part but also in the host, so I had to clean it up with a screw driver as it was grinded inside.
