Well power steering went out again. Have had parts on order since end of July. Been told the part may not be available anymore with Audi delaying.
Anyone have any suggestions? Retrofit an electric pump?
Hey
Not sure where you are located, but Rock Auto looks like they can get them.
Is it the pump for sure?
I am in Indiana, USA. They have the same reman as Autozone it appears. A lot cheaper for sure.
I am 99% it is the pump.
Well that’s good that it’s cheaper, Rock Auto does have a decent selection of maintenance parts.
Hopefully it’s not a long wait for the pump.
It will be here by Monday. The car has been down since end of July.
Great that’s quick!
Engine out job?
If you follow the procedure, yes.
My car is modified so can access it with just dropping the cradle a little bit.
Very nice!
Saves a bunch of time
I’m sure I will need to do this job one day as well.
I had to change my starter last year and did an engine drop.
Not a hard job, but had to replace my coolant and made a mess.
I have found that working on these particular cars is quite straightforward and I enjoy the incredible sound!
