While doing my 1st oil change I found a leak on the power steering hose. Looks like it starts behind the grill area and the fluid is traveling down the hose. Anyone else had this issue, and a repair cost? I will post pics as soon as I reach 10 posts!
 
Took it to the repair shop and it turns out it is the power steering hose. After some research it seems Infiniti only sells the hoses as a set! Also there is no aftermarket hose sets that I could find. New hoses from infinit and flush and fill was $ 700.00. I had it done at the shop since the temp around here has been 100 plus for about 2 weeks. I don't think I would have enjoyed doing this job in the heat!
 
I took the car to my mechanic who I have used for many years, he does all my work and is totally trustworthy. I did not take it to my local Infiniti dealer as I have had a few issues with them.
The parts were 350.00 and the rest was labor and flush and refill. I am glad to have it fixed and off the "to do" list.
Small things like that leak drive me crazy.
