Sounds like a ÜRO part. Avoid ÜRO like the plague.

Also, some recommended hose clamps would be much appreciated. This is an ultra low pressure system (under 1/2 an atmosphere), but I want the hose to stay put.
I use Oetiker clamps.

My VIN is YV1SW58D712114301.
Volvo part number 9155990.
FCP euro does not have it.
IPD+ $22.99 .
Volvo Parts Web Store $19.72 .
eEuroparts $24.39 .

Google "Volvo 9155990" you will find other sources ... once again Avoid ÜRO like the plague.

uro- “urine”
/ˈyo͝orō/
combining form
prefix: uro-

relating to urine or the urinary organs.
"urogenital"

Thanks Rick, this is very helpful.

Well, I'm very happy. Though I had to shorten the "J" hose to get rid of the crack on the end, it was still long enough (barely) to reach the check valve. My leak is now sealed and I passed smog this morning.
Thanks for all the help.

You have to rename your J hose the "field hockey stick' hose.

I bought one uro part. It was a coolant bottle. After 1 week it sprung a leak. Not leaking at a seam but center of bottle. What a piece of junk. I never bought anything more from them.
And what's the deal with the german Ü?? Is that gonna make it sound more swedish?

Keep your tools handy because you'll be needing them again.

The material the hose is made of is oddly cheap. It's like the thin straps on a child's "jelly" flip-flop.
Shortening it created strains. It's old now and will crack again soon.
Better to fabricate something from 1/2" hose. Just secure it so it doesn't rub.
Glad you got through inspection.
