137519, Power steering help Posted by T12icky0, Nov-15-12 06:04 PM
Ok i have a 98 Gs. The power steering is leaking very horrible(bottle every week). so i had it looked at and the shop didnt really tell me anything but that the pressure hose behind the transmission is leaking power steering fluid. for the life of me i didnt know there was a hose for power steering behind the tranny.
What do you guys think? ive already replaced pump and reservoir. Any help would be appreciated.

There is a high pressure line that runs from the pump to the rack behind the trans area. Probably leaking from there.

It really just depends on where its leaking from. You need to take a look and see if you can find it. If its the line then replacing it should not be to hard

it ended up being just the bolt on the line going to the Rack and pinion. its sitting loose. having it tightned and they think that should solve the problem.
