Anyone? The resevoir still has some fluid in it but the pump still growls really bad at idle. Its feels and sounds decent at driving speeds.

when you changed your transmission mount did you lift the whole engine up? you may have stretched your ps hose. I'd check verify all your hoses to see that they're ok.

I had to raise up the trans a little bit to put the new driveshaft bushing in. It looks like its my pressure hose leaking unfortunately, Theres fluid on the alternator and all the lines are hard as a rock. Looks like the sc is going to be for sale since I can't find the line for under $450

buy a used one from Aliga on here, should be a simple fix

do a search on power steering pressure lines, there are a few fixes for this that are a 1/4 of the price of an OEM replacement hose. Also, look around for hydraulic repair shops that carry metric hoses and fittings, they could repair it same day for even cheaper. Aliga also has a few used ones around as well. Don't give up just yet!

Yea I just looked though some posts where people got custom ones made and the most expensive was $170. Not too bad, I'll just replace the resevoir to pump line,re-build the pump and replace the line and still do it for less than Lexus wants for a pump haha. I'm just a little frustrated because my a/c went out about 3 months ago, inner and outer door handle stopped working on passenger door and now this lol

I just wanted to let everyone know Driftmotion Now sells the Pressure Hose for sc400's in stainless braided line for $70.

Good find... Daym I was about to ask why "sell the SC just because you don't want to buy the $400 hose"? Patience my friend and you'll find a deal eventually just like how you did right now. Yes, Aliga would be your man on a lot of parts if you can't find it anywhere else.

Because its hard to justify spending $400 on a hose plus the cost of repairing my a/c and passenger door. But with this new option I'm sure it'll help out alot of people. I'm the second person to get one so Ill take some pics when I receive it.

Maybe you can make a deal with this guy for the stuff you need.
