Title: What pressure does the power steering recirclating valve lift at?
Post by: rutger kohler on September 05, 2014, 06:11:41

I have replaced my high pressure hydraulic hose, on the power steering, using my refurbished
hose ends. I want to test the hose off the car before I fit it.  Have some original MB data sheets that suggest that the pressure should be between 55 and 65 bar (825 -975 psi) at 1000 RPM  but nothing on what the re-circulating valve opens up at.  Is this the pressure range that it opens up as well?

Rodger,  what did you do for the low pressure hose.    I am going to find some replacement hose for mine which is a bit dodgy.
