That ps U-shaped hose in the radiator is leaking, and it's getting all over the lower radiator/engine support beam...is this **** corrosive? I read mixed reviews. this is the same ps fluid I've had since buying the car back in '03.

 

Get that U-shaped line replaced since its leaking. Once you change it, get a hose and wash it off. I am pretty sure your condenser can use the washing off with the bugs that's on it anyways.

 

PS fluid in our cars is ATF. And replace the hose and clamps, it should stop the leak.

Also where is this hose?(pic) I thought our rads only had the tranny cooler in it?

 

He is probably referring to the aluminum piece that goes out to the front of the condenser. Other than that, there is no other hose going out there for PS fluid.

 

Is it the tube, or a shltty connection where the hoses clamp on? I would go buy a small cheap tranny cooler to replace that stupid stock "cooler".

 

Its not corrosive. Mine has been leakin for months. Replaced the clamps, still leaking. Ima try replacing the hoses with new ones. If that dont work i might replace the entire line or i may jus bypass the entire cooling line at the reservoir. I PM'd a fellow member who has done this, 3 yrs no issues.

 

Thx evry1...
Kevlo, the hose is located in front of the radiator, near the passenger side.

 

Now I hear a loud wine whenever I turn the wheel...any ideas what this is now? LOL hope nothing serious I think it's related to the PS.

 

Air in the syatem/low fluid. You have been adding fluid, right?

 

Thanks asand1.
I just changed the rubber hose with a new one, tightened the clamps all the way, and it still leaks! It's crazy hot outside and working in the heat is taxing. I am starting to wonder if the leak is coming from the metal hose like if it has a crack or something..if it is the metal hose then I'd have to just bypass the stupid cooler attempt that nissan tried making. If it does cool the fluid it could only be 2 degrees at most.
