Power Steering Suction Hose, BMW - E39 M5

This part is listed by BMW as BMW part number 32412228873 (32-41-2-228-873) and is described as Genuine BMW Power Steering Suction Hose for E39 M5 for the 2000, 2001, 2002, and 2003 model years.

This runs from the power steering pump to the steering rack. At either end is a hard metal line secured with a bolt and copper crush washer. The hose has extra length so the system can have more fluid capacity. Unfortunately it has a lot fittings where rubber hose meets metal line. These fittings are compression crimp-style swage ("swedge") fittings that are very common in the automotive world. These swage fittings are the most common area for PS leaks on your BMW. It's easier to replace the entire line with a new OEM or BMW part than to try and repair the line.
