Power steering pump

Post by ADS1 » Sun May 20, 2012 8:40 am

Is it possible to replace power steering pump bearings? Or cheaper/easier to replace whole unit.
Cheers.
Tony.

Swap the whole thing. Three bolts and some fluid spillage.

Top tip: avoid turning the pulley once the pipes are off. The pump is full of ps fluid, it will go everywhere :lol:
