hey guys, i am new the forums and BMW's as well.

Bought the 325xi for a good winter car.

I have a slight leak in the power steering, but i am having a hard time finding a schematic diagram of the power steering assembly (pump, rack, lines, etc)

i found this DIY http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthread.php?t=414455

now, when i am looking for parts online, they say the lines are not for the xi, but by the looks of the pictures in that DIY, and a look into my motor, some lines (if not all) look the same.

are they the same as the 325i (all e46)

any help would be great.

FYI this site rocks! A lot of support for the e46

Here's the same diagram for your 325xi along with the parts list. Except for the cooling coil (#10), all of your lines (1,3,7,11) have different part numbers than the ones on my 325i.
