Leaky Power Steering
« on: 26 November 2010, 17:55:01 »

Am I right in assuming the power steering system on 2.2 is not pressurised,have small leak on pipe that comes from filler/reservoir to pump it may just be the case of tightening jubilee clip or replacing "S" shaped pipe if this is the case can oil be drained off into container and new pipe fitted and then reservoir topped back up?
