BMW Power Steering Hose diagram for 745i

The power steering return hose is a flexible tube that connects the power steering pump to the power steering reservoir. It carries low-pressure return fluid from the steering system back to the reservoir after it has been used to assist in steering. This component is essential for maintaining proper fluid levels and pressure in the power steering system, ensuring smooth steering operation.

• Power Steering Fluid Leaks: A damaged or worn return hose may develop leaks, leading to visible fluid pooling under the vehicle or around the hose area
• Unusual Noises: A failing return hose can cause air to enter the power steering system, leading to whining, groaning, or grinding noises when turning the steering wheel
• Steering Wheel Difficulty: Insufficient fluid due to a faulty return hose can lead to difficulty steering, including stiffness or increased effort required to turn the wheel

About Genuine BMW

The original parts used by BMW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine BMW” brand. When ordering a Genuine BMW part you are guaranteed to get the same part that you would pick up from your local dealerships part department. Genuine BMW parts have been built to BMW’s stringent standards and are the same quality of the original parts used to build your Ultimate Driving Machine.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your BMW are not necessarily manufactured by BMW. No cause for concern, as BMW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for BMW for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine BMW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a BMW logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
