Power Steering

Recommended Posts

Hey All,

My power steering pump is noisy and gives very little assitance at low revs, not to bad when it has revs tho

There is also small peices of metal in the oil.

Would be the power steering pump on its way out?

The car is a 1998 Bmw E36 320i M-Optioned(not that it makes a difference to the engine)

Appriciate any help, if it is the pump also does anyone have a good second hand one or is new the way to go?

Cheers

Braeden

pieces of metal in oil could be the pump on its way out mate, happened to me a while back. thats getting metal through the steering rack too so you should probably fix it sooner rather than later.

Went to the old mans workshop and pulled it apart this morning.

Bloody handy having access to a hoist,parts cleaner and heaps of tools!!!

Was a peice of piss to pull apart

Fair bit of metal and scoring in the pump, was also lowish on oil.

Posted up some pics that i took with my phone to make the thread more interesting, :D
