*Glenn* 854 Report post Posted May 6, 2010 What is actually wrong ? Power steering pumps vary rarely give problems. Its common for the hoses to leak though. Did anyone check it for you ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BM WORLD 1283 Report post Posted May 6, 2010 no they are different pumps . different brackets etc . i would also say that your rack might be on its way . from metal bits going through the lines . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danutt 4 Report post Posted May 6, 2010 vibration in the steering at idle, it intermitent fluid does leak very little from a connecting hose to the back of the rack but not from the boots or anything like that steering has also gotten heavier regardless of fluid level...when i got the car the guy had nearly no fluid in the pump and it was whinning, added fluid and it went away but had a slight vibration in steering. i guess the lack of fluid and maintenance has caused its early demise Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
