Also the filter is only to be change if it need to be change that what they inform me about becuase the filter play with the power steering pump, even if the ABC line connect is that true?
Check the O-ring on the ABC pressure sensor on the valve block which has the leak. If the leak is at the O-ring, buy an ABC system pressure sensor kit at the dealer. It will contain an O-ring and a metal guide to aid installation. It's far less expensive than having to change the valve block and just may solve your problem.
