wanted power steering hose

Post by gookah »

Has anyone got a spare/ used power steering hose assembly for a six cylinder Z3?
It is the main pressure hose from the pump to the rack, and comprises a hose crimped onto a steel pipe and banjo fitting at the rack end and a steel pipe and flared end/threaded nut at the pump end.
Mine has a small split in the pipe at the flared end.

I have an element of 'M-styling' on my car, If that's a good enough reason for the manufacturers to adorn a 320 with the M badge, then its certainly a good enough reason for me..

I may have one of these for you, I would go have a look but I am too busy building an Ark as it has not stopped raining for days and days!

I'll have a look tomorrow for you and get a pic if I have one.

Searched hi and low for this but to no avail....looked on the car and it is still in situ!

Just to make sure this pipe tucks behind the rack and cross brace and makes its way to the pump?

Sounds like thats the one. There is a clamp behind the cross brace with a big rubber o ring /cushion and a crimped part in the middle of the hose.

If its' a 6 cylinder car they are all the same, Banjo on the rack end, and a screw in fitting on the pump end
