Since I got the car a month ago, the area around the hose from the PS reservoir has been wet. I tightened the clamp some with no luck. The fluid level is OK. And I noticed that the PO had the same issue and had the reservoir changed by the dealer.

Is this a common problem? I am assuming it it not a big deal since the level is fine. Is that reasonable?

Thanks.

Buy a new clamp and problem will be fixed.

DO NOT keep retightening the old clamp.

I thought about that. Do you think the dealer was cheap enough to reuse the old clamp?

Sound advice either way.

Thanks.
