The Worst Spot for a Leaking Flexible drain pipe

Question

I have a Rockwood UltraLight that has sprung a leak in the flexible drain pipe that comes from the kitchen sink P-traps. My TT has a kitchen slide thus a flexible pipe for the movement. It looks like the cabinet has been pinching it. Anyone found a way to patch or repair one of these? The main problem is location and the fact that it is a ribbed pool hose type pipe. Whatever I put on it has to be flexible.

Thanks for any ideas.

Replace the whole section....repairs will NOT hold upUse a longer piece so you can reroute it away from area where it is being pinched

Old-Biscuit is right as usual.  But if you must try a patch this stuff will last a little while.

Lowe's and Home Depot sell the ribbed flexible P-traps. Not sure how they hold up over time, flexing and moving all the time, but can't be any worse than what you've got right now.

All the above applies...  replace the whole works with a new flexible pipe.

Home Depot almost always has better prices than Lowe's.
