Just had this same problem. Any chance of a pic to show where to look? I'm trying to save a trip to dealer.
 






If you guys are looking for the CAC (charge air cooler) tube, it runs parallel with the intake tube.
When you remove the engine cover, you will see it (on the driver side).

Front clamp is easy to tighten as it's right there, but the back outlet is a bit lower and you'll have to reach down go get to the clamp.

I took the whole piece off (removed blow off valve recirculation tubes also) to clean out some crank case vapour sludge.
 






Had my car up on a lift checked all hoses all were in place. I have a feeling this might be bigger then a hose $$$$$$
 












My hose blew off as well. There was oil near the throttle body and inside the hose where it blew off. Is that normal to have engine oil there? Should I take the explorer to the dealer?
 






oil is normal in the hoses, some is from PCV system, other is from oil past the turbo seals

I've read on here where a couple of folks have had the PSI side turbo hose blow off. Today I was performing the first oil change and checked the hoses while I was under there and found the front hose to almost be off. By hand you could remove the hose without loosing the clamp, Im suprised it hadnt blown off already. I pushed back on and tightened the clamp which was knowwhere neat tight enough. The rear seemed to be plenty tight which is a good thing being it would be a PIA to get to. I would suggest having your dealer check this as it would be fun to try and attempt to reattach this on the side of the road.

Come on you UAW folks, put another turn or two on those clamps! Maybe its not in there contract but for 3 turns instead of the needed 5.:thumbsup:
Hey. This is what I suspect to be the 2nd time this happened to me. The first time, my ex went out and found and fixed the issue. He and I are no more. I figured if he could do it, so could I. I have googled the schematics and I can't figure out what's what. Is this hose under the car? -Just a girl who can tighten a hose if she could find it
