Trying to replace all power steering hoses on a 1999 M5. Problem with the one between the power steering pump and the servotronic unit.
At the pump end it is a 22mm banjo bolt, and it was tough to move. In fact, I had to get the breaker bar out. I got it moving, but after a couple of turns, it didn't /feel/ right.
I took a close look and, the banjo bolt was turning but the fitting in the pump, that the banjo bolt screws into, was turning with it, and was actually unscrewing from the pump. You can see what I mean on
It had unscrewed about 1-2 mm before I realised what was happening. I screwed it back up tight, but now I'm nervous. Am I likely to have broken the power steering pump?
