Before replacing pump fovthis issue .. there is a filter in the reservoir that puts air in the system replace reservoir 15 flush the system fill and burp the system guaranteed fix

Had bad mounting gear mount would that misaligned. It ?

Can all of those symptoms also be caused by your rack and pinion?

After replacing the power steering lines and rack I had power steering for a while and now it is hard again. I don’t see any leaks. Also no sound coming from the pump. Do you think I have a bad power steering pump?

Possibly air bubble stopped the flow. Air locked in system.

Can the PS pump cause rattle/clunking noise when the engine is idling? I have some vibrations thatbare getting harsher as the engine gets hot and it's mainly at idle. Also when it's idling and I'm moving the steering wheel it it vibrates like hell and it makes a lot of noise. Could it be that?

Have a serpentine belt on hand. If that pulley damages the belt you’ll end up stranded getting a tow.

I think I have a leak at the top hose that's connected to my power steering reservoir because the fluid seems to be leaking but stops leaking at a certain point. I think there's a crack at the top of the rubber hose somewhere around the clip since the top of the hose was kinda yucky.

Hi mate I think I have the same issue because I've been filling it up then normally but oils coming from the top hoses somewhere...but not sure if it is untill I give it a degrease n pressure wash and if this is common and not from the power steering pump or rack then I'm happy if not..my 5 series has only done 135ks

And on the ground in my shed it's only leaking on that one side power steering reservoir side

My power steering fluid literally looks like oil and when I turn right or left the steering wheel gets sticky, then jerks really hard to whatever way I was turning. Hard to explain

Can you put any kind of power steering fluid in a 2008 Nissan Altima

Squealing & stiff turning equals time fix steering ASAP😯

Had none of these symptoms. Got stuck in a parking lot this morning, got back into truck turned it on and couldn’t even turn anymore. Fluids looked alright, belt was good and the steering rack was replaced 9,000km ago…so confused
