Power Steering Pump

Recommended Posts

My power steering died recently and as a result the pump was changed.

It has since failed again, what else could there be that is causing the pump to fail and hence remove the power steering capabilities.

Any ideas guys??

Please Help!!

Thanks

Check the lines and drain/refill the system. Also with car running open the cap and turn the steering to release any air bubbles.

checked those extensively, that hasnt seemed to be the problem, any more suggestions.

Thanks

Have'nt a clue on Altezzas but on LS400 there is a little mesh filter at the rack end.

Don't know if you have one but it causes problems on the LS if it gets blocked.....
