Well i have just about had it with my car! lol!
firstly the power steer pump crapped itself, no probs put a new one on. then a few days later the power steer high pressure hose starts to leak. then the alternator sh#ts itself (doesnt like being bathed in power steer fluid) now, the solenoid on the rack has started to leak, only one piece of the system left to replace! (I have replace the rack ends and the tie rod ends allready so i hope that the power steer core wont start to leak...) anyway enough of a rant for now, as i might be selling the beast soon, cause i cant four wheel drive with it!

What colour is your power steer fluid? The unwriten laws of the universe dictate that the rack probably will leak soon. While you're at all this power steering overhaul you should replace the low preasure line with a new inline filter as well.
Good luck man, I've already been through all that but I just went nuts and replaced EVERY THING in the power steer system, not cheap. |
