How many have Power steering Leaks??
I have noticed quite a few A4's with Wet Power steering hoses, yet for the life of me can not see where it is leaking from.
I was told the the Fluid actually weeps through the OEM hoses.
Any Experiences.

2 places I have seen. The lower clamp to the front cooler loop, and the hose itself. As Jim S...
pointed out, we replaced a line on Gregg's car (Mark's bro) in Sear's Point last year because it just decided to split. We replaced it with a locally source hose that can hold over 400psi of fluid, mainly just to drive it home. It busted the power steering pump when the hose blew on track.
I replaced my stock hose with an off the shelf one and seepage is gone.

Mine had a leak at the res. One of the clamps had apparently lost its clamping pressure. I cut the old one off, and put a worm clamp on. Problem fixed.
