Need some help as I'm not very mechanically inclined and would like to avoid mechanic costs. My celica died on my as soon as I got home. As I made a turn the battery and oil light came as the car died. Id say it's about a 15 minute drive. Checked oil levels and they were good. Temperature needle was good also. There seemed to be some steam coming from the power steering reservoir area from which I had a problem previously
About 2 weeks ago it started spraying water around the power steering reservoir area, couldn't really pinpoint the location as it was dark. I filled it with water and it ran fine until today. If anyone know what could be the problem and how easy/hard it may be to fix pleas help lol thanks for the read. And here's a picture of the hose area where I think the original leak came from
