In addition to being a how to replace a part video, this is also a how not to diagnose a noise problem video as well, because I am assuming the noise is coming from the power steering pump because it sounds sooooo much like that noise, however I realize now I should have checked everything else I could before I condemned it.

what is the plug and he bolt next to the power steering pump that you see at 4:15?
that's where my leak is coming from:/
remember the three 'c' s , cause, cure, correction.
Having the same issue, did the water pump and idler pulley recently, thanks for not cutting the video up because i was about to spend serious $ on a PSP and now i'm going out to re-check this stuff i did!
very good video!!!
Where did you get the return hose (the one from the reservoir to the pump)? Mine's leaking, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Also, the hoses under the fuse box and in front of the condenser are leaking too. I'm curious if I could just buy some bulk hose and cut it to the different lengths I need. Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!
hello my power steering pump dont have the pressure sensor where the green cable go.?
great video. from beginning to end.
Thanks for sharing. Very humble and helpful. I'll be doing mine on an 05 Altima 2.5L soon.
Thanks for the video. I am better off before trying out some repairs. I appreciate your being real and showing some of the mistakes that we make because we learn from them.
good video and camera work, if there is a noise I like to spray the pulleys with lube and see if the noise goes away , this may help u to pinpoint things next time, also take 1 belt off at a time and see if the noise stops
thank you for leaving your trait and errors
THE SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE BLED, THERE IS AIR IN THE SYSTEM. IF WHEN YOU OPEN THE CAP AND HAPPEN TO SEE FOAM…THERE IN AIR TRAPPED IN THE SYSTEM. BEFORE STARTING THE VEHICLE AFTER A P/S REPLACEMENT IS BLEED THE SYSTEM, BY LIFTING THE TWO FRONT WHEELS OFF THE GROUND. THEN FILL THE RESEVOIR, THEN TURN THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT AND RIGHT WITH THE CAR OFF, AND THE FLUID ON THE RESEVOIR WILL GET LOW SO KEEP TOPPING IT OFF UNTILL NO MORE AIR IS SEEN. THEN START THE VEHICLE. YOU DONT WANT TO RUN THE PUMP WHILE IT IS DRY.
Another question I bought this certified 2011 toyota camry last year. And I have noticed that if I step on the brakes downhill I can feel a vibration. But if it's driving on plain road and uphill there is no issue. Is this a cause for concern? please advice thank u!!
Thank u!!! cause, the Mechanic said both power steering pump and hose needs to be replace.
Mine is 1996 Nissan Altima i have noticed that there was a power steering leak as well. My suspect was just the power steering pressure hose but not the power steering pump. Because i couldnt hear any sound from the pump itself. And the power steering reservoir doesnt get empty that fast. Is this correct? please advice thanks!!
