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.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Can anyone advise what the hose is for on the steering fluid reservoir ie simply a breather, or does it have any 'mechanical' effect (vacum ) Mine looks like its snapped off about an inch down from the clip connecting it to the reservoir body. Steering fluid level is fine, car doesn't drive adversely, just can't find the rest of the pipe Any advice gratefully received Thx, Simon

POST 2Original post

Welcome Simon! I think it must just be a breather pipe. Mine just goes down and under the positive power terminal. I couldn't see anywhere obvious for it to connect. Sorry I couldn't get a decent shot of the open end of the pipe.
