Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

So today for the first time I noticed a pretty bad squeal from the engine compartment every time I turn the wheel. I'm assuming the power steering pump is failing (fluid was full) Is this a pretty easy DIY replacement? How much time should it take? Anyone have a link that shows a good walk through of the project?

POST 2Original post

Are the drive belt and belt tensioner in good condition? Power steering pump failure for our cars is not common at all.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I replaced the belt last winter (3,000 miles ago) and it looks good still. How do I test the belt tensioner? Feels like there is good tension on the belt.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

One new piece of information.... I just remembered that over the last month ago I would hear a whine at full turn of the wheel (going into parking spaces for example). Am I wrong or most likely steering pump? Again... any info on a DIY would be great!

POST 5Original post

On my race car I replace my PS pump with the new Cup electric PS pump. Probably over-kill for your situation. However, I do have my original PS pump with less than 5K miles i could sell you. Eric

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks guys.... looks pretty complex considering my current level of expertise. has anyone on this board done this before? how much time does it take and how is the access to everything? Based on the directions, it seems like everything is right in front of you, probably don't even need to get the car up on jacks?
