Bman1296 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Hi All, I am experiencing a leak from a repaired (not by me) power steering hose line which comes directly out of the power steering pump and does a U-turn. Attached is a part diagram to describe the issue, and also a picture of the leak. The green shows the joiner which I believe was a repair job attempted previously, liquid is leaking from the bottom of this. Above the join is another, much smaller leak from a split in the hose. Essentially, the hose is getting old. Is it possible to get this hose replaced without ripping out the entire system? I have no clue how I would remove this hose, or if this is at all possible. Can I repair it in-situ? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/483361-r34-gtt-high-pressure-power-steering-hose-leakperished/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTSBoy Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 You need to do the required disassembly to get that hose all the way out (turbo in & out pipes, probably radiator shroud, possibly radiator, definitely undertray, etc). The repair process from there would be to take it to a hydraulics/hose place and get them to do what needs to be done. Would involve new swaged connections, new hose. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/483361-r34-gtt-high-pressure-power-steering-hose-leakperished/#findComment-7961359 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, sorry for the late reply. I had to take off the entire part with hose attached, one end going into the banjo joint on the power steering pump and the other part going all the way around to the steering rack. Bit annoying but did it with a bit of flexing under my jacked up car. Then took the whole thing to Pirtek and they put the new hose on. Then reinstalled it.
