Power Steering Problem

[ecstaticx]

One more thing po, I've noticed na mabula yung fluid inside the reservoir. Parang softdrinks.

[red_one]

Air bubbles in the reservoir
- Check for crushed inlet hose or a loose hose clamp allowing air into the suction side of the system.
- Check for cracks in reservoir

Pump
- Front seal leaking > Replace front seal
- Pump housing leaks at either end > Replace the housing O-rings. If the housing still leaks, replace the pump.

Pump outlet hose (High-pressure)
- Leaking at the threaded fitting > Tighten the fitting. If it's still leaking, replace the O-ring or pump outlet hose.
- Leaking at the swaged point > Replace the pump outlet hose

Pump inlet hose (Low-pressure)
- Leaking because of damage, deterioration of improper assembly > Replace or repair as necessary

Thanks for the help. I called Mang Toto and he said it's the PS pump that needs to be replaced. Another whooping 9,000 for the surplus lang. Anyone knows where to get a cheaper part? Also, is mang Toto really that reliable? :-(

If I may add, sabi nung mechanic in our area, pump na nga daw talaga kasi puro gasgas na daw. Ganun ba talaga yun? Pag gasgas need palitan?

like any other parts, need lang palitan if faulty na or not repairable. alin ba yung may gasgas -- external or internal component ng pump?

fix mo agad ang source ng leak. don't let it get worse.

Pano nya nalaman na gasgas? Pinabaklas mo ba yung pump?
I could be wrong pero baka nga pump talaga problem ng crv mo may way para ma test yung pump mo kaso kakalasin yan eh.ikot ka sa banawe baka makahanp ka ng mas mura pa pero make sure na yan Talaga sira baka kc kaya pa irepair yna kung oring lng mga sira.

Na experience ko dati na pag nag add ka different brand na PS fluid or atf, mag bubbles sya.

Then make sure to put genuine Honda PSF when you get your "new" pump. Additionally, drain-replace when necessary to avoid dirty PSF circulating in your pump.

This thread is really heaven sent! I questioned the mechanic kung pump na talaga. Sabi ko it could be another leak or baka need i-bleed. Binaba nya yung pump, may leak ang oil seal. Pinalitan na ng oil seal and it worked! Pero it's not that magaan parang dati. Pag-uwi ko sa Manila, I'll make sure na papalitan ng orig na fluid. Pero sabi ng mechanic di na din talaga tatagal yung pump. Madami na daw gasgas. Nakita ko nga din gasgas na talaga. I'll make sure to canvass na din sa banawe. Thank you sa lahat ng tumulong!

the pump can be tested without removing from engine using a fluid compression gauge. hindi lahat ng auto shops ay meron nito. the Honda casa for sure will have this but of course mas mahal din bayad.

according to CRV service manual, the fluid pressure should be:

with pressure control valve fully open = less than 213 PSI
if reading is above 213 PSI, check outlet hose and valve body

with pressure control valve fully close = at least 1,000 to 1,140 PSI
if reading is below 1,000 PSI, repair or replace the pump

if worn out na ang components ng pump, no use to salvage it since operation is already compromised. replace it as soon as possible.

[ecstaticx]

*red_one can you recommend a shop that can do such? Btw, your inputs helped a lot. Thank you so much!

wala ko alam na particular shop with P/S pressure gauge eh.

if mapalitan mo na ng Honda P/S fluid at mabigat pa rin ang steering, it would mean lower than 1,000 PSI ang pump pressure.

[ecstaticx]

I would. Salamat po!

Mga sir may tanong lang ako regarding sa steering ng mazda 3 ko. Kapag nagpapark kasi ako or umaalis sa parking parang nagsstop yung pagkabig ko ( parang sagad na yung manibela pero hindi naman ) pag nag step ako sa break. Then pag binitawan ko preno tumutuloy naman yung pagkabig.

Ano po kaya problem ? Meron power steering warning light yung mazda 3 ko pero hindi naman nagwawarning light.
