I've got this beasty missing a home it seems.
Unfortunately I'm finding it hard to see where the hose goes to even from under the car - but at the other end it runs alongside the PAS pipes, but then up the side of the radiator and finishes here, as you can see resting along the very top edge of the Radiator by the intake.
It's the same size and has the same sheathing as the PAS hoses, yet I already have the 3 PAS hoses correctly connected up - two to the rack and one for the reservoir as it is below:

Underneath the sheathing it is just a normal black rubber hose, there is no trace of moisture inside the hose nor any trace of anything come to mention it.
In addition to that, I would have thought an AWOL PAS hose would affect the steering or be giving me a leak/losing fluid - yet it's all hunky dory.
Is it maybe a spare hose that Citroen use for the European models with Air Con? Or perhaps the previous owner replaced a PAS hose and instead of ripping the hosing out has just disconnected it and left it? I'll try to find where the hose goes off to, as the answer probably lies there, but anyone got any ideas?
In case it makes a difference this is on a MK2 VTS.
