Need Mechanics Advice!

Tomorrow morning I have an appointment to take the Maxima in because the radiator hose going to the thermastat collapses. (sucked in) When I remove the radiator cap you can here the pressure being released and the hose returns back to it normal round configuration.
DOES ANYONE KNOW THE CAUSE?

Last thing before I go in I have a Hyper ground kit I installed..should I disconnect all the wires prior to taking it in?

Thanks for your help!

Sounds like you have a blockage in the system, possibly in the thermostat or elsewhere. They will probably just drain the system and flush it then refill (and replace components as necessary). I wouldn't worry about the wires since they will have to prove the external wires caused an internal (to the engine) problem unless, of course, you wrapped wires around the hoses somewhere or shoved them into the water passages . Good luck!
