Hello all,
I think I may have a power steering pump leaking. I changed my oil today and when I got underneath the car I noticed some fluid had collected on the line leading from the pump. I also noitced to marks on the lower radiator hose that looked like if you could press the hose against the pump pulley it would have made those marks. What I think is the pulley is slinging the hot fluid onto the hose and wearing it down. Please see the pics of the hose and the line from the pump. I still get good steering and no groaning. The fluid is just on and below the collecting line you see in the pic. From the pics does anyone think the pump is leaking or the collecting line?
