Hello, I just bought a 94 q45a, the car was slammed to the ground when i purchased it, doing some research i was told the power steering pump also doubles as a pump for the active suspension. when changing the oil last week i noticed that there was a hose and a plug disconnected and just hanging after further investigation i found that the hose had broken off of what i believe to be the power steering pump but in looking online the power steering pumps look way bigger than this.there are three metal rods with hoses attatched to them riight next to this hose. my question is does anybody have the slightest clue what this hose may have broken off of and if i fix it is there a possibility that my active suspension will begin to work? Thanks in advance

I was told that it was the high pressure hose. Would this cause the suspension to malfunction

So I've figured out which hose I need to replace...now I just have to find one. Does anyone know where I can find a power steering hose for a 94 q45a online for a decent price?

New power steering hoses for the G50 are becoming hard to find. Where are you located? I've seen people get PS hoses repaired by hydraulic hose repair shops.
