So I have had a progressive leak of my power steering fluid and I finally took it into the shop since it was getting pretty bad. THe tech said I needed to replace my pump because the seals were leaking.

Is this common? And my gawd those pumps for a D2 are pricey. I was expecting only to replace one of the lines because thats were I thought I saw the leak. I am kind of curius if I am getting worked by the tech or if those pumps actually develop common leaks.

 

Hi there I got an oem pump from Carquest for a lot less!

 

Thanks,

I checked it out and its a remanufactored one correct from Cardone? No problems with it yet?

Maybe it was particular to this place but it came thru in a Landrover box and I was told it was new

 

I do know that I put their lines in and had problems had to get oem

 

Be careful with re-built pumps, they have a pretty high failure rate.
Have you actually power scrubbed off the hoses and pump to verify if the pump is leaking, usually it is a hose.

 

Agree
IT maybe the cheap hose on the back side.
