This kit basically rebuilds your power steering pump. Inside the pump you’ve got seals, an O – ring, maybe a bearing or two, things like that. This kit includes all those little parts you need to replace the worn – out bits inside the pump itself. It doesn’t include the pump housing, just the stuff that goes within it to fix leaks or restore pressure. Your steering pump is what provides the hydraulic pressure that helps you turn the wheels. Without it, turning the steering wheel would be incredibly difficult, especially at low speeds. It takes the effort from your steering wheel and multiplies it using hydraulic fluid. It's a pretty vital part of making the car easy and safe to drive. Well, over time those seals and O – rings inside the pump just wear out. You’ll notice if you start getting leaks – usually you’ll see fluid underneath the car, sometimes it’ll make a whining noise when you turn the steering wheel. If it gets really bad, your power steering assist will start to fade, making the steering feel really heavy. Ignoring it can lead to the pump failing completely, and then you’re looking at a much bigger, more expensive repair. Doing this repair kit yourself, or having a mechanic do it, is a lot cheaper than replacing the entire pump. You can find these kits easily enough, even on places like Fixparts Online, and it’s a good way to get your steering feeling smooth and responsive again. Think of the seals like a shield protecting the moving parts, when that shield wears down things start to fail. Secure your purchase: Repair Kit (MPN A0005862846) includes a 12-month warranty!
