VXII (V6) - What pipe is this?

[webbiegareth]

Hi all,

I appear to have a leak somewhere... I'm assuming it's a power steering hose. What's the actual name of this one? I'd like to buy one BEFORE I go to the mechanics as I'm sure I can source one cheaper off Ebay or a local store, then I'll just get him to fit it at the next service It's been like this for ages.

It's the hose that goes to the power steering fluid cooler

They are for the trans fluid, goes from trans to radiator then back to trans.. . and i believe it is 1 piece from trans to radiator so it will be a bit fiddley to replace..
The hose over the far left of the picture is the PS cooling line..well goes to the cooling line..

If the pic is recent, doesn't seem much of a leak.
The power streering pumps often leak and the pulley and fan throw the oil every where, are you sure its not that.
Give it a wash with degreaser and then leaks will be obvious, and you will know for sure.
Pinch your partner/wife/sisters make up mirror and with the aid of a torch you will be able to see behind the pulley.
