Hmm, not really sure but those seemed to be the high pressure hoses. And since these are traces of leaks, for sure it ain't normal.

But it does not automatically mean that you 'd need to replace the hoses right away.

This is a pic I took of my MB's leaking high pressure hose before. I was almost sure I would need to replace it but since the leak was only from the crimped area and the hose had some extra length to spare, I had the leak area cut and re-crimped.

Problem solved.

PS. But then again, these are HIGH PRESSURE HOSES. You would not like to wait for these to give way (mainly caused by the extreme pressure it holds). Ergo, have it checked and fixed as soon as you could.

*benz-can the crimping/re-crimping be done at any hole-in-the-wall shop? or do i need to bring this to a casa? thanks so much!

hose yan ng power steering fluid coming from the PS fluid pump and going to the... gearbox ba tawag dyan? yung pinagkakabitan ng recirculating ball steering ng steering wheel. tumatagas thru the crimps. pa re crimp mo, it might help. try mo din magpalit na ng power steering fluid, baka luma na. Dexron III lang tinatanggap ng xwind ha. wag ka gagamit ng hindi dexron III.

boss, papalitan na yung hose ko sana ngayon. umuwi lang ako para kumuha ng pera. so ok pa ba na di pa mapalitan itong hose? ang mahal kasi ng oem nito. nasa 2k dito sa izuparts, sa jayson's mas mahal. yung re-crimping ba sino puwedeng gumawa nyan kung sakaling ok pa hose nito? tama ba anga tawag nila dito "hydraulic hose"? and in case ba na magpalit rin ako ng hose, pati ba yung power steering fluid palit na rin? please advice. salamat ng marami sa mga payo nyo!

From where are you?

Those are relatively easy to repair. Any reputable shop can manage. What is more important is getting the parts needed.

di ko alam kung meron replacement nito, pero nagpalit na din ako nito eh, OEM pinalit ko para sure. just like the brakes, i consider steering parts as critical parts (imagine kung biglang tumigas manibela mo while driving at relatively high speed, ewan ko lang kung di ka pagpawisan ng malamig na butil butil hehehe). as for recrimping, may mga nakikita akong mga shops that offer the service, yung mga tindahan ng hydraulic hoses, but since OEM pinalit ko dati, la din ako alam how much.
yes papalitan power steering fluid. then mas mabuti kung linisin mo na din yung power steering fluid reservoir. nagkakaron yung ng parang black or reddish deposits thru time, either decomposition products ng power steering fluid or nung hose mo. umiinit kasi yang fluid na yan while your PS is active.
again, dexron III gamitin mo. da wan en onli recommended. ;) hth

Taga Caloocan ako, busy sa bahay at sa labas kaya nagpapahanap lang ako ng madaling puntahan na shop na pwede na e-repair lahat or sabay sabay sa isang araw lang. Papakabit narin ako ng New alarm system. Any advice sir Benz!!?

Thanks sa reply!
