Awesome video!! My high-pressure power steering line was busted and I thought that was the cause of the whining. After replacing the line it was still there, it turns out my low-pressure line didn't even have an o-ring on it. The noise stopped along with the overflowing as soon as I added the o-ring. Great video along with an awsome explanation!!

I appreciate you posting this repair with a detailed explanation. I haven’t had a problem with a power steering pump but this is very useful to have as a reference. Thanks!

I might have been concerned when the noise continued after the repair but you solved the problem by resetting the intake O ring. Great tip!

Excellent explanation on the two o-rings (red and black). I believe 4-cylinder 2.3L engine size ONLY needs the black o-ring. Dan, my pump only makes the whining noise after 6 or more hours of parking. When I start the car up, it whines in low noise for 10 secs and stopped, and things are smooth after that. These o-ring are actually cheap from the dealers, if they carry them in stocks. eBay are overpriced on these parts, FYI.

Man I thought mine was bad but after seeing this thank you I’m check the o ring I replaced the suction hose repositioned it 30000000000 times and now found this

Great video. I did mine as well after following the video and the noise was still there and progressively became worse. Did a flush and added new fluid, still same thing. I rewatched your video, and you said you had to reseat your o-ring. So I pulled mine out to reseat, and it was broke, so apparently I pinched it going in and broke and so the noise continued. I purchased another o-ring and carefully put it on and in and immediately the noise dissipated. So anyone else please remember you may have to pull it out and reseat it.

Outstanding video! Thanks for sharing. Best vid on KZread for this o ring replacement!! Bravo!!

GREAT video and fix on my 05 Pilot. Took 30 minutes to swap out the black and orange o-rings which Orielly charge $16 for. Seems steep but the result is worth it. Topped things off with Honda PS Fluid $9 pint. Rag underneath to catch oil, bolts, o-rings was helpful. Helpful to take a short video pre and post fix so I could confirm in my mind was quieter. Air seemed to bleed out of the system almost immediately only turned the wheel once each side. Great fix saved a full PS pump replacement for now. :)

@@ginavenegas491 i believe i turned the wheel with the cap on to prevent splashing fluid out. Air escapes out regardless of the cap. Turns out this was a temporary fix for me. I found a leak in my high pressure hose line that was again letting air into my system and leaking fluid out. Paid mechanic $350 for parts and labor to replace entire new line, no PS is golden. Good luck!

Hi Michael, You're welcome! Thanks for the feedback. Happy to hear it worked out for you. Thanks for watching! -Dan the Fix it Man

Excellent!! Thanks I was having the same issue and your method resolved the issue!

First of all great video. However, for those who have a 2007 Civic like I do, this is much harder as they have positioned the pump in the back of the engine, down below. Since I'm not in great shape, I cant lean long enough to do this, so I have to pay someone to replace something I could do on my own if the pump was in a better spot like in this video.

Nice video. I saw many of them from different channels to get an idea of how to change the o-rings on my 2006 Civic. The only problem is that, your car has the easy approach since the steering pump is all the way on the top, with easy access to the lines, as mine and some others years (do not remember the years now) are kind of upside down, have the lines connected more towards bellow of the motor bay of the car, with access from under the car, or taking out the "back plate" in the motor bay to be able to access it from the top. But your video will still helping many people, that because of it, will not fall for some "mechanics" lies that the car needs change the Lines, if not even the Power Steering

Thank you so much. I have the exact same issue and i am going to fix it myself now.

Thank you for sharing this video. I just did it, and it worked perfectly.

Thank you so much man for sharing this. I have exactly the same problem.

This videw was very helpfully Great video thank you so much 👍👍

Thx for the video, gonna give this a try that sound is so annoying 🙂 *EDIT replaced both still hearing it not as bad, I was extra careful reinserting the hoses 🤔

Thank you much!! I appreciate it. Problem fixed!

Did anyone notice a difference in steering once they replaced the O-rings? Did your steering wheel turn easier?

I spent $300 for a new power steering pump just to find out this video is all I needed for my problem 😅

Wasn't the reservoir part of the TSB as well? I know early ones were defective and the new ones had a white dot on the top.

I have a 2005 Honda crv ex with similar noise, but also have choking sound and stress on the steering wheel when turning it full left or right. It gets louder and harder to turn. Research points to rear wheel differential fluid issue. Maybe a gasket needs to be replaced?

Great Vide, going to fix mine now....thx

I have the same issue it fixed my wine , but I still see air bubble and I see that high pressure hose is showing wear at the crimps , could that be sucking in air,

Hello sir how do you bleed do you take the reservoir top off ?

Thankful for you, friend.

Thanks again for the video. I replaced the O-ring and the noise went away. You saved me a lot of money. I know any mechanic would have recommended replacing the steering pump and some of the hoses. Really appreciate your help!

No need to bleed the oil out of the system first?

Is it possible this exhibits itself after fluid heats up? I thought I was hearing transmission noise, but now realizing it seems to change as I turn the wheel and gets more noticeable after car (Element) been running a while.

It usually makes less noise as the oil heats up. Mine makes noise for 5 mins after startup then quiet/normal as long as it's running. See if your PS reservoir is foamy, that indicates air.

Did you just turn the steering lock to lock while it was sitting on the ground or did you have to jack it up to get rid of the noise?

@islandboy2424

You can do it on the ground but it may leave a mark on the driveway from the tire rubbing. Guess you could move the car reverse or forward slowly so its not as much rubbing, or wet the driveway.

Would this fix a hard steer, I noticed that when car is cold, the steering is kind of hard, when car warms up it steers a little smoother, any ideas?
