2010 Toyota Camry Exact Match

This is an exact match to my 2005 Toyota Camry. Everything fit and fit perfectly. Just keep the 2 clamps from the old return hose, only 2 included = 4 required. Warning: This is not an easy install. The radiator hose may need to be moved/removed. To install the new PS return hose, it is also necessary to loosen the air conditioning lines. It was worth the hassle, with the local dealer charging $356 for a replacement.

Pros
  • Return Hoses
Cons
  • Broken

Position hose/line with pic

It would be perfect if this was the part I need! One end of this Dorman 979-170 hose connects directly to the power steering fluid reservoir in the engine compartment.

The hanging hose is connected to a separate rigid line that runs under the engine. I couldn't find a Dorman match for the end result but…

Pros
  • Power steering
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Worked on a 2011 Camry

I've had a power steering reservoir leak for quite a while. Over the years the right side rail of the frame has become a real mess.

This Dorman part fits well and saves you a lot on the dealer part. The curves are perfect and as others have pointed out you need to reuse 2 zip ties. To drain the reservoir I simply…
