Removing and Installing/Replacing Power Steering Pump for Power Steering Gear With Dynamic Drive
32 41 037 - Removing and installing/replacing power steering pump for power steering gear with Dynamic Drive (N62, N62TU)
Warning!
Danger to life!
Secure engine in installation position Securing Engine in Installation Position to prevent it from falling down.
Important!
Adhere to the utmost cleanliness. Do not allow any dirt to enter the hydraulic system.
Seal off hydraulic lines with plugs.
Note:
When replacing power steering pump:
Fluid reservoir Removing and Installing/Replacing Fluid Reservoir for Power Steering with Dynamic Drive / Active Front Steering must be replaced in event of metal abrasion, sluggish pump shaft or increased wear!
The filter integrated in the fluid reservoir can only absorb a limited amount of foreign particles. If the filter clogs, the hydraulic system can no longer be sufficiently protected.
Metal abrasion is perceived in the fluid reservoir as metallically glittering hydraulic fluid.
It is only necessary to replace the fluid reservoir because of leaks (e.g. at hose connections) only in the event of the unavoidably high ingress of dirt.
Necessary preliminary tasks:
- Draw off and dispose of hydraulic fluid from fluid reservoir
- Relieve tension on drive belt Replacing Alternator Drive Belt and remove from power steering pump belt pulley
- Lower front axle carrier Lowering / Raising Front Axle Carrier
