The present invention relates to a medium-carrying hose, preferably for pressure medium and for use in, for instance, an engine unit, the wall of th e hose comprising at least one wall portion (5). The wall portion (5) is connected with at least one expansion portion (4) to form a continuous hose casing, so that the circumference of the hose is variable between a minimum value, when the expansion portion (4) is unexpanded, and a maximum value, wh en the expansion portion (4) is maximally expanded. The expansion portion (4) extends in the transverse and the longitudinal direction of the hose, the wa ll portions (5) being displaced relative to each other both in the transverse a nd in the longitudinal direction of the hose as the circumference increases and the expansion portion (4) expands. The invention also relates to a method fo r manufacturing such a hose.
