I just did the AOS last weekend. Had transmission out for IMS/RMS/Clutch so super easy access from under car. STILL couldn't get the freaking squeeze connector off the bottom of the AOS, so after many futile attempts I took the BFH (channel locks) squeezed and rotated, broke it clean off and out the hose came! I had already decided to replace with hose clamp. glad to find out I'm not the only one, and I recommend the BFH process highly with those connectors.
