Product Details

Edelmann Pressure Line Assembly 71382 is part of the brand’s pressure line assembly line, focused on OE-style replacement hoses for power steering systems. This hose is made to duplicate the original routing and bend profile so it installs in the allotted space without forcing the line into an incorrect path. For Audi 5000 Quattro and Audi Quattro steering repairs, that means a direct replacement approach that supports proper fluid transfer under pressure.

This part cross-references Gates 359700 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Addresses

• Power steering fluid leaks from a worn or cracked pressure hose
• Steering noise caused by pressure loss in the hydraulic line
• Fluid contamination from hose breakdown inside the steering system
• Routing issues after replacing a damaged OE hose
• Heat- and pressure-related deterioration in the original line

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle fitment before installation: Fits 1986 Audi Quattro, N/A. Fits 1986-1988 Audi 5000 Quattro, N/A. Compare the original hose routing, connection points, and overall length before removal. Clean the surrounding steering components and inspect related seals, fittings, and fluid condition so the replacement line can be installed without introducing contamination.
