thank you! oh man what a life saver! so that diagram is good for the 97 318 right?

As I recall, yes the lines are the same. You can always ring up a local BMW Center and get the part #'s off of them.

I did a power steering refresh from Pelican Parts for a very reasonable price.

Hit up Pelican Parts.com, part number is 32-41-1-092-982-M21.

The power steering fluid filter is integrated into the resevoir, and the resevoir is fairly cheap. Go ahead and replace that. Part number is 32-41-1-097-164-M103.

Go ahead and bleed out the system with the new filter in, but the return hose pointed into a catch pan. Then connect it back up and get some new fluid in it.
