We have a 2001 dodge dakota extra cab which is leaking power steering somewhere but we can't find it. Have power washed entire engine and can not find leak. Let everything completely dry and then even looked for leak under pressure with engine running and turning wheels. Can't even see a drip and nowhere is there a wet area. Any ideas? I need to refill about every 2-3 weeks. Thanks

 

Moved to Second Generation forum.

Is there any chance you're overfilling it and it's coming out the cap when it gets hot? Also, pay attention to the steering rack. It could be leaking there. Was there fluid on the engine before you washed it?

 

What engine?

Pull the connector on the power steering pressure switch and look for fluid.

 

Wash everything, add UV dye to the fluid run for a bit, then use a UV flashlight . The flashlights are pretty cheap at walmart.

 

Mine lost the seal at the bottom of the steering rack itself. Had to look really hard to see where it was seeping past.
