32 41 037 - Removing and installing power steering pump (N62, N62TU) for power steering gear with Dynamic Drive (from 10/03)
Important!
Adhere to the utmost cleanliness. Do not allow any dirt to enter the hydraulic system.
Close off pipe connections with plugs.
Note:
When replacing power steering pump:
Fluid reservoir Removing and Installing/Replacing Fluid Reservoir for Power Steering With Dynamic Drive 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
- Remove drive belt Replacing Alternator Drive Belt
- Remove active stabilizer from front axle carrier Removing and Installing/Replacing Front Active Stabilizer
- Remove steering gear cover at side
