Cheap Fix for Power Steering Noise | Repair - 2004 Honda Pilot

Ойын-сауық

How to fix the power steering noise and other symptoms common with this system. The same configuration was used in many other Honda vehicles, including the Ridgeline and Odyssey.
Hit that subscribe button!
For the repair you will need:
24oz Honda Genuine Power Steering Fluid
2 New O-rings - Honda part numbers 91370-SV4-000 & 91345-RDA-A01
Available in a kit here: www.ebay.com/itm/4-PC-KIT-NEW...
1 New Power Steering Reservoir
I purchased this one: www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-OEM-...
But there is an updated version (requires new cap - not included) and that part number is 53701-SHJ-AO2
I recommend finding some cheaper generic "Asian" power steering fluid to flush all of the old crap out with.
Required tools:
10mm stubby (short) wrench - the job would be impossible if not very difficult without one!
Long needle-nose pliers
Drain Pan
2-3 foot lengths of 5/8 & 3/8 hose
Torque wrench (8ft-lbs)
10mm socket & ratchet (extensions helpful)
Turkey baster or suction pump

    Pump cost 50 all day online. O rings are $4 for both. Bring it to the shop and get charged $150-300 and they sell your old pump to the next guy. Thanks for the video. Learned what I was looking for.

    In addition to that, most mechanic shop people do not accept parts if one buys it one self from online; they might accept if one buys it from the autoparts stores they patronize. And if they buy the parts themselves, the warrantee is not honored by the autoparts stores if one goes to a mechanic different then the one who installed it. O'reilly's and Napa do that along with mechanics.

    Just like most people in the earlier comments I want to thank you for your video. I would recommend that when flushing the system, it is good not to let the pump run dry. So I had someone turn the car on and turn the wheel and I was putting more of the new power steering fluid, and as I had no more to put, then I would let the person inside the car know when to stop and turn the engine off. Again thank you!

    Ordered parts and got this done! It definitely has helped but I’m actually still having some noise after it heats up and i noticed some fluid blown back around the pump before I started. I may have bought myself some time but a power steering pump is probably in the near future. This video was spot on and helped me make short work of the job. If I can make a suggestion, removing the plastic engine cover gives a little more room to work and stuffing a rag down below that lower bolt will save your bacon if you drop that bolt trying to get it back in there like I kept doing.

    At time stamp 12:10 the video states you need a stubby 10 mm wrench to get the bolt off the black plastic hose connector (low pressure hose). I did this job on an 2002 Odyssey and I had to create my own special Honda tool from a stubby 10 mm wrench. I used an angle grinder to make the box end thinner and then I bent it at a slight angle after heating it up with a torch. It was still a bugger to get access to the bolt.

If I can't see it, the extendable magnet stick is my 2nd go to. Anyone working on vehicles should own a magnet stick and a long snake claw grabber. I recently upgraded to a snake claw with a magnet on the end. Worth every penny Thanks for watching and commenting!

    Craziest thing... I had the loud whirring of the power steering a month or so ago and replaced the O-Rings & reservoir like you suggested. Everything went well... until I noticed a leak in the reservoir line that travels up to the cooling tube at the top (in front of) the radiator. So I ordered a replacement hose and clamp.. which took a month to arrive. I then replaced the hose and clamp with no issues. Now... crazy as this sounds... the high pressure hose connection is leaking at the fitting. It didn't leak for a month... but as soon as I fix the leak at the reservoir hose the high pressure connection starts leaking? Would love a comment.

    I'm sorry it's taken me so long to respond... It is leaking at the top where you just replaced the o-ring? I know draining the system is a pain but o-rings are cheap. I would probably replace it again but be extra sure none of the surfaces are scratched or gouged and perfectly clean. A chain is only as strong as the weakest link, hopefully you can chase down where that is once and for all.

    Good video and nice fix, but did you read the top of the power steering fluid reservoir? It says in 3 languages to only use Honda power steering fluid. Honda only, or you could use the Idemitsu Honda formulation since they manufacture Honda's fluid. Other than that, it was a good video, but very bad advice to recommend anything except Honda power steering fluid.

    I would replace the reservoir too, there's a screen in there that gets clogged and it can create a pocket of air below it. That air gets sucked into the system and causes cavitation in the pump. Then lift the front end, and turn the wheel back and forth with the cap off the reservoir, this should bleed air from the system. When turning back and forth, stop just before it locks, you don't want to turn the wheel until it stops. When the engine is running and the cap removed, you should be able to see smooth fluid inside. If it is foamy or bubbly you have air getting into the system somewhere. Thanks for watching and commenting!

    Cleaning it may be difficult due to the location, and I could be wrong but I think Honda had another change to that reservoir that would be beneficial but I can't remember what it was. It isn't removable, and the reservoir replacement was cheap enough it just made more sense to replace for me. Due to shipping issues and availability these days that story might be different.

    Two weeks, i bought a 2003 accord 3.0 v6 and it had the loud noise on the power steering. the reservoir bubbles up, leaking fluid on the bottom. checked for recalls and they replaced free the high-pressure steering hose and an ignition key component. after replacing the new high-pressure hose it still has the same noise and bubble in the reservoir. i figure i need to replace the new red o-ring . so i bought it for $3, a new reservoir with the two hose that connects it. gave it to my mechanic friend to install and after that, no more noise and leaking. Saved me several hundred!

    Yup! Is it also worse in cold weather? The orings get old and let air into the system, cold weather makes them contract further. I also replaced the reservoir because there is a fine mesh screen at the bottom that can become clogged and starve the pump of fluid and contribute to the noise. So 3 parts in total. In the description there should be a link to the kit with the fluid and orings.
