General Information

Vane pump is not designed to be serviced. If there are customer complaints, the cause must be determined using a pressure and leak test. If there is a malfunction, replace the vane pump.

If fluid is low in reservoir, always check steering system for leaks.

If there are leaks in the area of the line connections, the lines/connections must first be inspected for leaks, tightened as necessary and wiped dry.

Pump is delivered without oil. Therefore, hydraulic oil must be filled before installation and turned by hand. Otherwise, noises when driving or damage to pump may occur.

Removing

- With vehicles with air suspension, place vehicle on hoist. Refer to => [ Positioning Vehicle on Hoist and Wheels ] Positioning Vehicle on Hoist and Wheels.

- Extract hydraulic oil from reservoir using (V.A.G 1782).

- Carefully pull engine cover off from 4 retaining pins - arrows -.






- Remove air guide hose - arrows -.






Applies to Engine, Generation I with SCR and Generation II






- Loosen the air guide pipe - 4 - (if equipped) in the center and move it upward. Remove the bolt - 1 and 2 - and loosen the bolt - 3 -.

Be sure not to damage any parts when moving the air guide pipe - 4 -.
