Power steering leak...

Miketitan2006 · 10-15-2009, 06:09 PM

I bought my 2006 Titan about 4 months ago and i noticed that the power steering fluid was really low, so i filled it up then noticed on my next oil change that there seems to be a leak somewhere. Has anyone else herd of any power steering leaks?

My 08 has a PS hose that is starting to leak. Only enough to leave an oily film, though.

I had mine replaced under warranty. Now that I am out of warranty, if it fails again, I am going to get a decent aftermarket hose.

My hose replaced twice under warrantee.. 3rd? leaking... Not much but keeping an eye on it. $212 for the hose alone. nice

My second hose starting leaking again shortly after the dealer replaced it. I put some Lucas Oil Power Steering Fluid/Stop Leak in and it is fine now, at least has been for about a year.

Check your coolant line connection near the bottom of the radiator. Nissan has a TSB on these. Mine were leaking and sprayed all over the power steering hose making it appear like there was a leak from the power steering hose. Once the coolant line connections were fixed and I wiped off the power steering hose it's been dry ever since.
