I'm sorry to make this my 1st post but I've searched and can't seem to come up with an answer.
I'm leaking power steering fluid and I've tracked it down however i can't seem to tell if it's the hose that is bad or if there is a O-ring behind the clamp that i can replace.
obviously the hose is expensive and i'd like to avoid doing that if it's possible.
so please look at the pictures and let me know what you think. These pictures are of the power steering hose right above the rack and pinon and seems to be leaking from behind the clamp. yes i checked up at the reservoir and the hoses in the rest of the system, this seems to be the only location fluid is collecting and is dropping on the ground.
that looks like the hose leaking. the clamp holds a rubber mount that secures the hose in place so it doesn't chafe or move when the car jouncing up/down on the roadway.
