Those some very weepy hoses. Has your PS pump been replaced under the recall?

The simplest way is to call a Mini dealer, service dept, give them your VIN number and see if you are under recall. While you have them on the phone, also ask them about the Airbag seat sensor recall for your car. You can get a Carfax report to see what has been done by the dealer to your car.

Recall was for up to early 2005 production. Double check your vin above to be sure ^^

Lines were not covered unless the MINI dealership approves it case by case. It was just the pump and fan.


For the Power steering lines DIY here and parts.
