Power Steering Cooler Return Hose, BMW - Z3 2.8, MZ3

This is the high-density rubber hose running from the hard power steering line back to the fluid reservoir. BMW calls it a Return Pipe. It fits 1997-1998 Z3 2.8 (M52 engine) and 1998-2000 MZ3 (S52 engine). A Genuine BMW part.

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.
