Power Steering Cooler Return Hose, Rein - E38 740i/iL/750iL

BMW has two hoses they call a Return Line - this is the hose running from the power steering cooler to the reservoir. It returns fluid back to the reservoir. Like the Inlet/Supply Hose it has non-reusable crimped hose clamps where the hose meets the reservoir. Leaks are very common here as the clamps loosen and the rubber hose swells.

Chances are very good that one or more of your E38 740i/iL/750iL power steering hoses are leaking. Power steering leaks are a not uncommon trait of BMW ownership. Most of the leaks can be traced to old hoses and fittings that have been in service for too long. Just like cooling hoses and belts, rubber power steering lines need periodic replacement. Don't wait too long to replace a leaking power steering line! It's only going to get worse and coat the underside of your engine in dirty oil. Replace them before they fail in order to save you from further headaches and expenses.

This is a power steering hose manufactured by Rein (CRP) Automotive - an original supplier to BMW for many engine components. As an OEM, Rein meets all of BMW's original design, fitment, and performance requirements and is TUV approved. OEM parts are the best alternative to more expensive Original BMW parts because they are virtually identical without the inflated price tag. This part has a two year warranty.
