    Two things. If you are refering to the IC hose at the top of the radiator.

    There could be water at the bottom part of the IC itself. If so, removing the bottom hose at the intercooler and draining it will be very helpful. It only needs to be 80% or more clogged.

    The hose itself could have become too weak by repeated flexing and needs to be replaced, unlikely but still a possibility.

        Condensation. You live in a very damp marine climate, and short trips with out 'using' the turbo will make things worse. The water will have some oil mixed in with it, but that is normal turbo blowby.

        The alternative is to reverse the flow to the inter cooler, a bit of a task.
