Replacing the high pressure line on a 2005 Nissan

[Tom Littlejohn]

I have a 2005 Nissan Titan and was told by a mechanic that the power steering high pressure line is leaking and needs to be replaced. I believe him because I am finding fluid spots on my driveway. I would like to know if there are any good step-by-step instructional videos on how to do this on this vehicle or any other vehicle if most vehicles are pretty much the same. Rather than pay $95/hr for labor I would like to do this myself if it is not too difficult.

not sure if this will help.

I had same issue 2001 Max. You know it’s not just a rubber hose it’s real dynamic. First I’d get a genuine Nissan replacement on that one.

Second I’d consider removing the hoses from the pump if you ever have to slip off the P/S belt again if it is manual tensioner. If you tighten the tensioner screw too much to slip off the belt it may put added stress on the hose creating a bad leak.

Only use high quality replacement oil.
