You have ~23 water hoses and 7 of them are critical, you have replaced 2/7. But I would replace all, if any split you might be able repair with duct tape until you get to a service station.In general, I wouldn't worry about it too much. But since you are asking...If you get those requested parts, you should be ok. I do disagree with your Acura tech about them not failing w/o warning, they do . My main relay failed at LAX, at the passenger drop off lane, during Memorial day. Quite the spectacle. Fortunately (after searching me, my car and an interogation with several folks, they were able to roll me into a "secure area" where I could replace my main relay (yes, I did have a spare in my trunk).All of those parts commonly fail, should be considered a wear item and should be in your trunk (they don't take up much room either). Just do it.Drew
