My PowerSteering (PS) pump bearing showed signs of going bad with a ticking steel on steel noise especially in cold weather. Now I got one from a donor car but of course to the same model same engine number the pump is slightly different (only mine is 9 months newer). (mine is last BP 2009 OBW series EU).
The main housing of the pump looks exactly the same. But then:
1. The one piece where the piping connects with the elbow has a different angle, pointing more forward. I was thing to just undo the screw and use the elbow one I have on car now.
2. The other piping connector is more a mystery, mine has the banjo bolt directly on the housing, but here seems a nut is there.
Can i just remove that nut? and then put my current banjo on the housing.
Or, do I have to put the banjo on top of this nut (seems to fit)
Then the bracket that holds the cover is bend (donor had to hood damage, ran into a trailer after it was rear-ended), but can easily transfer my own as well.
Will this work?
