Power steering pump remanufacturing

The power-steering pump is the main element of the power-assisted steering system. It allows you to apply less power when turning the wheels. Driven by a belt, the pump pumps the power-steering fluid into the steering rack. If it fails, it may leak fuel or become seized altogether. A malfunctioning pump produces a characteristic wailing sound when you turn the wheels. Most pumps can be reconditioned.

Tips

  • If significantly worn, the cost of reconditioning a pump may exceed the cost of buying a new one
  • Repair a faulty pump as soon as possible, as it may cause a malfunction of the other components of the steering system, including the steering rack, and, consequently, increase the repair costs
