Thanks man! Really appreciate the information about it may take multiple after market pumps and to exchange it if it doesn’t fix it. And the line at the end that “it’s the only thing you have ever seen cause hard steering in a Honda really helped” really put my mind at ease! I wasn’t sure if possibly the rack was part of the problem. Thanks man!

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 4 года назад

No problem man, glad the information helped you out. I have seen only a handful of power steering racks cause tight steering throughout my career in the last 10 years. It's extremely uncommon.

@patrickshriner3468 5 лет назад

The internal pump problem is usually a binding "flow control valve"(pressure valve) which is binding in it's bore. you will see minor scuffing/abrasion marks on the valve and the valve bore walls.

@glasser2819 4 года назад

then anyway to fix that valve with a rebuild kit without having to swapping new pump...?

@mrwilson2005 4 года назад

@an80sguy_ 6 месяцев назад

Thanks man, doesn’t look terribly hard! Gonna give this a go soon. Shop that replaced our ps pump in first place wouldn’t warranty ours because they said rack and pinion needed replaced for $2k. I said no thanks and it’s been hard to steer ever since. I’ve kept the reservoir full and never notice any leaks. I think they were trying to take advantage. Your thoughts?

@DefensorFortis 2 года назад

is there a way to purge the air from the power steering system?

@RussellBooth1977 4 года назад

This wasn't in a Honda but in my Holden VY SS Commodore where the genuine GM power steering reservoir cap which was ordered from Holden in Australia to replace the leaky cap caused it even after I rebuilt the leaky power steering rack and pump,I also freed up as stuck bypass valve inside the pump as well. The new OEM cap didn't have a vent check valve in it which should've been underneath the dipstick part which just snaps out & clicks back into place. So,I got a 2 millimetre (3/32" drill bit) & drilled a hole into the cap which fixed the problem. What was happening is that when the aerated fluid made it back to the reservoir from the power steering rack the air had nowhere to go so the reservoir was getting pressurized & the aerated fluid was just getting circulated back into the power steering pump & rack. The hole allows air to bleed off rather than be trapped inside the power steering system !

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 4 года назад

Interesting and thanks for sharing. That's cool you were able to modify it to rectify the issue

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 4 года назад

Never heard of a Holden Commodore. Had to look it up. Definitely don't have those here in the states

So the pump and the rack have bin replaced but steering still hard so I'm having truble with the air purging when it's on it asks for more fluid but when it's of it fills back up if i add more while its running it will make a mess when it's shut off think it's the pump is supposedly new

Hallo Sir, i have the Same Problem But - i putted very wrong power steering fluid in my accord, and in Winter Right now the steering is hard sometimes. You think i should try at first changing the power steering fluid? Thx

@TekNeekify 4 года назад

Hey NoNonsense! Love your videos, been following along for a little bit now. Have finally acquired an Acura TL, but the steering gets very hard to turn at only LOW RPM. Would this indicate a new pump should be installed? I've read something about a PSS30 part and just changing the O-rings have also helped others, but I figured I'd ask a pro!

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 4 года назад

Hey Beattie Thanks, I really appreciate that. Yes it's probably a worn-out pump but if you read to try replacing just the orings first I would certainly try that. Is it whining?

@TekNeekify 4 года назад

@@NoNonsenseKnowHow It's been in a shop getting some work done to pass a safety inspection and isn't plated yet, but from what I notice, there is no whining from the pump while I have it idling in the driveway and the shop also didn't notice it. (I move the vehicle to get access to the garage, so turning at low RPM and reverse parking are definitely something I need to do with ease and not fight the wheel!) I had it looked at QUICKLY by a friend who is a mechanic and they said they didn't notice anything wrong with it either, but that doesn't always mean anything, as I said, it was a quick inspection off the clock.

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 4 года назад

@@TekNeekify I see. Well yes if there is any air in the system that could cause hard steering as well. Or if the power steering fluid is low. But a lot of time these Honda pumps just get worn out and cause hard steering at idle. Next time it's hard to steer, try giving it some gas while the car is in park or neutral and see if it gets easier to turn. If it does then it's probably the pump

@spektrumFTW 5 лет назад

Hey my steering gets stiff and soft and stiff again and soft when going through a complete turn cycle.. It doesnt return back to straight after i make a turn. I changed tie rods and had an allignment done. I never had this problem before. Full power steering fluid reservoir. What can be the problem? The belt was cracked and i changed it..

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 5 лет назад

Honestly it's hard to say without checking the vehicle out. But my first guess would be a worn out power steering pump or restriction in the system . or wrong fluid

@spektrumFTW 5 лет назад

So you feel its still safe to drive if i can steer through this stiffness..

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 5 лет назад

@@spektrumFTW honestly it's hard to say hey like I said. Without feeling it. But now I would take care of the issue before continuing driving it. Better safe than sorry.

It sounds like your belt maybe slipping. Next time it's raining or acting up, have somebody look at the power steering pulley when you're trying to turn the steering wheel. You should be able to see if it's slipping on there or not

@David-qu3ro 4 года назад

My mother in law is having an issue with her Odyssey's steering. I'm not convinced it's the pump since its fine when the car is cold. When it warms up is when it becomes stiff. Ever heard of that happening on these cars or in general?

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 4 года назад

I haven't personally seen that exact scenario. But I suppose I could see that happening. The fluid becomes thinner when it gets hot so maybe that is affecting the flow rate if the pump is worn out. Also clearances inside the pump are changing when it gets hot.

@David-qu3ro 4 года назад

NoNonsenseKnowHow thanks for the reply! I was actually on my way over when I commented...it's the pump. She also ended up telling me it was hit and miss. So then I took it out and it didn't matter if it was cold or not. It was hard to turn until I pumped the throttle, and then it was easy. Whats crazy is, this pump was replaced under warranty at 53k miles. The van now has 140k. The warranty wording is kind of vague as it says it's extended to 7 years/100k from original purchase. I'm hoping it means from when that pump was installed, but I'm afraid it's just the purchase of the vehicle...

@TheProtagonist_777 4 года назад

The engine runs at higher RPM when cold. That could explain easier steering.
