right hand side as you look at bumper...that could only be the PAS cooler rails
RE: power steering leak ?? - dec-66 - 16-04-2013
yeh must be cheers how easy are they to change ??
RE: power steering leak ?? - Piggy - 16-04-2013
pretty simples
Or you could bypass for the meantime
RE: power steering leak ?? - dec-66 - 16-04-2013

RE: power steering leak ?? - Piggy - 16-04-2013

be silly money new.
just when you get it...clean it up and paint with stonechip paint to protect it
RE: power steering leak ?? - dec-66 - 16-04-2013

RE: power steering leak ?? - Piggy - 16-04-2013

you can access it from underneath quite easily. it could just be a loose hose rather than a broken pump, i had the same on my car turned out just to be a loose clip on the hose.
you don't want to ignore it though, it makes an almighty mess if the hose pops off if your driving

^^^^ err he said right hand side as you look at it.. pump is on left...
so Im assuming its on the bend on the cooler pipes or near the bend?!

the leak is on right hand side of what looks to be like in front of the radiator
RE: power steering leak ?? - dec-66 - 18-04-2013
