Nice find Oli.

Will....move PS lock to lock 10 times, then follow post #8.

I also thought there was a special tool for PS system fittings.

Fwiw, I tried to remove one of these only for the platic "release clip" to break into ten pieces. I said f it, and left it on there. Mine was not leaking, so I let it be. Will be a pita when I have to do it. Btw, the hoses are 50 bucks at bmw...each.

It is a good looking hose though.
