#1: Power steering leak Author: pianoman, Posted: Sat Nov 03, 2012 6:29 am ---- I have a low pressure leak dripping from the bottom area of the radiator (left hand side looking fron the front).
I have not recently done much vehicle diy but fancy sorting it myself but can't find a detailed view of this area in my manual.
Does anyone know of a manual which looks at this area as I prefer not to do it blind, if at all possible.
Thanks

My one got buckled and started leaking/dropping, fixing involved replacing with a new steel cable tie.
If your's the same problem, when fixing watch out the hoses do not detach or liquid will spill all around.
Good luck!
