[W126 Coupe] 1988 power steering return hoses

Transmission lines go to the radiator. Power Steering lines do not.

I think both lines are flexible 12mm where do they go to the radiator or to
the cooler tube which go to the radiator (has it work)and what is running
though them is it power steering Fluid?

Hi Kelly,

Not too much to tell except to be certain and use only MB hose clamps.  One
of the lines looks to be molded, the other a straight run.  Both hook up to
the cooler tube up at the radiator.  So tracing them back to the metal lines
should be easy enough.  I'd ask others on the list to comment on that molded
line...is it a factory mold required???

Regards,
Dick

Hi all
 
My power steering return hose is leaking and I am going to try to replace it
myself.  Does anyone have a diagram of the power steering hoses and how they
go.  I understand that they are 12mm hoses and can I just pick them up at
any parts store and what do I need to know.
 
 
Thanks Kelly
