Please help power stering failure

[MDimitri]

I just recently replaced my HydroBoost via the dealer and it ran me $1,600.00 for the part and install plus tax! If you go to Rock Auto you can find a very well priced one either new or RM'd, (I was unable to take advantage of RockAuto's pricing because I needed the part placed on quickly so I was at the mercy of the dealership) I believe the HydroBoost sold by Rock Auto was manufactured by A1Cardone, very nice quality.

Cheers!

Hi IRA51

Thanks for all your help

I have changed the PS pump, no big deal. I bought the pump part and had to reuse the housing.

I paid 200$ for the pump and another 200$ for a special tool to pull the belt pulley (hope this is the right word).

So 400 $ and a couple of hours to do the change. If anybody else need to do this and need advise fell free to ask.

Thanks again for all the help on this great forum

I just joined the no powersteering, no powerbrakes club, while pulling my travel trailer. Drove 160 miles using the trailer brakes to stop what a B#*%.

Still under warranty so I'll take it to the dealer this am. Glad to see one part can cause both to fail, I could not figure out what they shared.
