BMW Power Steering Seal Ring (18x24x1.5mm) - Reinz 32411093598

Product Information

The power steering pressure hose is a high-pressure line that connects the power steering pump to the steering gear or rack. It carries pressurized power steering fluid from the pump to the steering mechanism, allowing for easier steering by amplifying the force exerted by the driver on the steering wheel.

• Fluid Leaks: A common sign of failure is visible leaking of power steering fluid around the pressure hose or its connections. This can appear as puddles or wet spots under the vehicle
• Increased Steering Effort: If the pressure hose is damaged or obstructed, it may result in reduced fluid flow to the steering gear, making it more difficult to turn the steering wheel
• Unusual Noises: Whining, groaning, or hissing sounds may occur when turning the steering wheel, indicating air in the system due to a leak or that the pump is working harder than usual

About Reinz

Founded by Hugo Reinz in 1920, Reinz has been known for the manufacturing of Automotive gaskets for over 90 years. For almost a century Reinz has provided gaskets and sealing products for both auto manufacturers and as an aftermarket solution for car enthusiasts. Their full catalog features over 15,000 different products, providing a great selection for excellent value. Way back in 1962 Reinz became the (OEM) original equipment manufacturer for the prestigious Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen car companies, a strong partnership that still continues to this day. The company continues to innovate and stay well ahead of the curve. For example, Reinz stopped using asbestos in their gaskets 12 years before it was banned in Germany in 1993. Reinz performs because every part they manufacture meets OEM standards – meaning you're getting great value that you can believe in. Many brands and models use sealing solutions from Reinz. In 1993 Reinx became a partner to the American company, Dana, to form the largest manufactures of components for automobile and commercial vehicles. The Gasket segment of Dana was Victor at the time ahich was then merged with Reinz to form the brand name of "Victor Reinz".
