  • Pulley Squeel? P-steering?

    I have this strange squeel that comes from the accesary drive units at random times. I notice when stopping at a toll booth it seems to be the loudest. It sounds like one of the bearings is dying in one of the accessaries. Note the AC is off when this occurs. I replaced the drive belt today to see if that would reamidy the problem however its still there. Sounds like it might be coming from the power steering pump. If so is that expensive to replace?

    i have the same exact problem, i have never bothered to fix it but, the pump itself can be bought used of ebay for about $25-30, also you may need to change a couple of the hoses(at least i do) and labor should be $80-100

      Check your fluid level first. If it doesn't fix it, you probably need to replace the pump. You'll most likely need a pulley puller unless you get a pump with a pulley already on it. It took me about 2 hours to replace mine, it wasn't too hard, the hardest part was pulling the pulley off the old pump.
