Re: Power steering line

The issue is time and weather- it is getting down to negative temperatures now and laying on the cold ground will not be fun I may bite the bullet and pay for this one

Re: Power steering line

Sadly discovered it is the pressure line a little pinhole but there was a mesh over it so it just dripped- I replaced the rack 4 years ago so the lines probably aren't super tight but do I have to drop the subframe ???

Power steering line

98 V70 has a bad bad leak- it isn't spraying so I suspect it is the return line- do I have to drop or lower the subframe to repair this ??

Re: 98 V70 non turbo transmission leak

No she is here I drove out and got her but will have to go back North to the car- the reason I suspect it is the dipstick is the fluid coming out is nice and clean and seems to come out as fast as I put it in- I drove it for 5km and the fluid dripping was cold while the cooler lines were warm

98 V70 non turbo transmission leak

My wife's car is out of town and she said it had a transmission fluid leak, I knew the cooler lines were leaking so went out and changed them- but it is pouring out when I fill it, leading me to think it is the dipstick tube- as it is 250km from me I would like to get any other ideas, it seems to be...

RACK or PUMP ?

have a 94 850 that I am bringing back to life- I RN swapped it along with the RN steering pump and it was fine until this year when I started driving it, at low speeds the steering is hard- I hope it's the pump as I hate changing racks- any hints as to how to diagnose
