Second New Power Steering Pump Not Pumping Either
#41
#42
I am in Canada and so it is much easier and cheaper for me to order parts straight from the Uk, parts to my door in 2 days, and this is where I ordered my power steering pumps from and as it turns out they are both Allmakes pumps.
I have been in direct contact with Allmakes and they are having me return the two pumps, at their cost, so that they can examine / test them for factory defaults.
Do your homework before buying a power steering pump. As someone else mentioned, it seems that there are two different qualities of Allmakes pumps for the Discovery.

Yep, I just had the same issue yesterday when installing mine. The threads broke loose on one of the mounting hole of the flange that the pulley mounts to. Luckily I still have some threads left on it and with a longer bolt and some locktite it is secure.

New pump fault resolved
Sorry to drag up an old thread.
but I have recently had this issue and resolved it.
bought a new pump, fitted it and filled with oil. Fired it up with no pressure from the new pump.
I proved this when I disconnected the high pressure side of the pump and ran it up..... still nothing.
But I discovered that the high pressure side was sucking.
stripped the pump down and reversed the internals and solved my issues.
worth a look if anyone is reading this.
hope it helps.
