4500 power steering leak

txcowrancher · Dec 12, 2012

my 2006 4500 has leaked power steering fluid for some years now. seems to be from the resevoir area or upper hose area.
is this a common known problem and what was the fix ?
thanks

Probably an O ring at the top of the resevoir..I had that issue on my 6000 about 7 or 8 years ago...been fine since then...BobG in VA

Okay call me ignorant (and with most things mechanical I am dang close), but I thought the Mahindra used the hydraulic system for the power steering. I have a 3215 HST and have never dealt with power steering. I will have to check it today.

That does not apply to all Mahindra models.
