after inspecting the source for a hydraulic leak on the power steering I found that the low pressure (return) hose was leaking at the fitting where the flexible hose meets the metal hose behind the front wheel this is a crimped connector.

Does some knows how hard is to replace this hose?

I believe that this hose is the one with the 'snake oil cooler' that runs to the rear of the car and connects with another flexible hose leading to the pump.

Somehow I think that this will be an expensive repair... :ah: (only on the parts)
