99-05 Lexus IS200 - power steering oil cooler pipe

[SeaDogMike]

Hi everyone,

 

I’m in need of a second hand power steering oil cooler pipe set for my 53 reg IS200. Does anybody have one for sale? 
 

thanks

Hi Mike and welcome to the LOC.

Due to its exposed location this is a common problem on a lot of Lexus models.

Some members with LS400s have replaced theirs with a shaped piece of thin cooper pipe, I think it was 10mm micro bore.

Have a read on this link page 4 looks a bit Heath Robinson but does the job.

The part new from Lexus is around £180.00, I wouldn’t go for a used one because it may be no better. I think our resident parts supplier Lexus Parts Direct are working via mail order. Part number is 44402-53021.

As a temporary fix you could cut the bad section out and use rubber hose and jubilee clips to rejoin.
