Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 3m 13d Posted 02/05/14 10:39 AM Share Posted 02/05/14 10:39 AM Pic will do the talking, Oil sprayed all over the motor in between turbo and power steering pump. Pump is a little noisey but nothing majorI initially thought head gasket but a mate told me it probably isnt and possible power steering pump is on its way out?if it is what's the best option for a replacement? There's one on ebay that's a reconditioned genuine one for $150 posted, or should I try a low km one off a wreck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so that's what it is. No biggie about $200 I think and easy to change over. I had to replace one in my old BA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pulley has been a bit noisey in recent times aswellNah not enough doughnuts. Car has seen a few powerskids but never seen a doughnut (in my possession anyway)Cheers Kosij I'll double check its the pump and give them a call monday morning!

It's only the smallest amount of oil because the oil level has never dropped on me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Power steering oil got a different smell compared to engine oil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 3m 13d Posted 07/05/14 12:30 AM Author Share Posted 07/05/14 12:30 AM Yea I don't have a decent pressure washer available here in canberra, will have to wait till I go home next. Power steering feels fine and not using any oil so hopefully nothing too bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
