If you remove your power steering pipe and take it to a company that makes up hydraulic hoses they will be able to make you a replacement. Avoid Pirtex as they cost double the price of competitors.

Will try to find one close to home and thank you for the advice xx

If you were in London, I could recommend a good company to use that could make it for you.

I took mine to Pirtek dealer and they made a permanent repair for £80. Hope that is some help

Thank you all for your help.It is now in for welding one door seal and they are also going to sort the pipe out at the same time.This old lady is racking up the pennies but I,m sure she will be worth it.!!!! Xxx
