There are NO clamps on a PS pressure hose. The rubber is swedged at the factory to the metal pipes on either side.

If they mentioned the word "clamp" then its either a low pressure return hose, or a cooler hose.

 

I had to replace my rack and pinion about 3 months ago let me tell you it is a crazy expensive fix when going to a dealership hopefully it's covered under warranty. I was able to find a used one for about $500 and then paid another $300 for labor. And then 2weeks later my power steering pump went on me and that was another $500 I wasn't happy at all. The dealership was asking I believe $1,800 for the rack and pinion alone without labor

I'm sorry to hear about all that man that's a heck of alot to deal with in such alot horticulture amount of time but hopefully it'll get better and you stop having to deal with so much crap

 

 

Thanks for the info, I'm looking at the chart you just posted as well. I'm going to call them for clarification.


I already complained to the manager and they said they would take the labor off the bill and just charge me for the part, so I'll probably let them do it, but still need clarification on the "clamp" thing.


Thanks,
