I need to replace a leaking power steering line on my vehicle, But im not sure which one, Return Hose Line Assembly or Pressure Line Hose Assembly?Can I get the Power Steering Line diagram? And How to replace? I bought "2005-2007 Buick Aztek & Rendezvous Service Repair Manual + Wiring"PDF. But almost about Aztek and NO show any the power steering line replacement instructions. Do u have any 05 Rendezvous Service Repair Manual?Thank you.

Hello Jerry,

Thanks for the video and images it makes it easier to see the problem. Yep, that hose is definitely leaking. Typically the pressure hose has hose connections like that but as I look at the hose images this is what it looks like, can you follow the hose to see where else it goes? If it goes to the steering pump and screws into it, this will be the pressure hose, if it clamps to the pump reservoir it is the low side hose. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response

Hello Ken.I think thats return hose, see the images. And the plastic clamp became brittle with age and broke off as soon as I touched it. Is it easy to replace the return hose?And I have another question about jack up points from rear. The factory jacking points on both sides of the rear wheels are heavily rusted and structurally compromised. They cannot be safely used for lifting. So I want to jack up from rear, but I dont know which points can jack up?Which jack stands? See the last picture. Thank you.

Yep, the hose in the first image is low pressure with that style of clamp. Sorry, we only handle one problem per thread, please post your new question here for the jack point issue, you must be logged in.
