Hello all, 01 S 6spd I am about to remove the engine. I have one complication from the standard and need advise. I have a mid rise scissor lift which covers up access to the power steering lines on the left side. (Access to everything else is wonderful) Bentley manual says you need to disconnect the feed line, jets video (which is great) disconnects the feed and the return at the bottom. (It looks like Bentley just has you unclip the return at the top). Any advise on the following: - Trying to access the feed line at another location (Possibly by the reservoir?) to disconnect - Cutting the line in the least expensive place? Since I removed the back cross member I do not really have any other accessible jack points to try to bring up the rear a bit to get in there. Thanks in advance!

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

False alarm.. I was able to get the whole line out by undoing all the clamps and pull it out from under and do it there. Thanks anyway!
