Problem with leaking Power stearing pump
 
I have a 2001 ML 55. I noticed the other day that thier was a small pool of oil on my brand new driveway. Upon inspection i noticed oil on th PS pump. It appears a gasket leak or leaking line, somthing of that sort. Any feedback on how to resolve besides going to Benz would be appreciated?

This is a known problem with ML's, there was an official recall for the hose clamp problem a while back. Sorry but you probably should call the dealer and get it fixed free. If you do a search of this forum you'll come up with lots of posts about this problem. For example http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/showthread.php?t=56306&highlight=power+steering+leak ;)

You should adjust the clamp yourself before taking it to the dealer so you don't get stranded on your way. It will get completely loose.
