Steering problem
2002 BMW 530i 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 24 000 miles

I had to replace the low pressure PS hose because it was leaking on its attachment to the bottom center of the fluid reservoir. Now a new leak seems (both areas are moist) to be coming from a "fat" tube that meets an
horizontal tube that runs along the lower edge of the radiator, or from a plastic sensor (?) that is attached to the mentioned horizontal tube towards the driver side.
Tomorrow I'll get under again to have a better view, but I need to know the name of those parts to check where to buy it. Anybody has had similar problems?
Thanks
