If your Nissan Altima or Maxima with the 3.5L V6 is leaking power steering fluid or making noise, this pressure hose is a direct replacement for the original. It fits Altima models from 2008-2012 and Maxima from 2009-2014. The hose is built with a steel tube and multi-layer reinforced rubber that can handle high pressure (up to 1,500 psi working pressure) and temperatures from -40°F to 310°F. It's designed to match OEM part numbers 497209N00A, 3403716, and others, so installation should be straightforward—just swap out the old one. Includes four mounting gaskets. Since power steering systems are under pressure, we recommend professional installation if you're not experienced. A quality fix to restore proper steering feel and stop leaks.
