BMW 32413450590 Power Steering Pump

Empty the power steering fluid taking as a caution, not to refill the same fluid back to the power steering system. Junction the car to a lifting point and lower the front of the car, then self deploy of the left front wheel, then reduce the splash shield located under the engine. Take the accessory belt off the power steering pump; if the belt is to be reused, place a mark on it showing the direction of its rotation. Having the vehicle raised, the hoses connected to the pump have to be disconnected, which is why wear protective gloves and napkins to clean up any dripping fluids. Detach the clamp on the suction hose and disconnected its end that was connected to the pump and remove the pressure fitting and pressure line. Screw tight the plug on the holes at the ends of the pump and the hose to curb contamination. At the front side of the Pump, unbolt the power steering pully and then remove it. Take off the idler pulley of the alternator, then unbolt the pump, paying attention to special spacers and shims if there are any and having removed the pump from the engine compartment. Removal is the exact opposite of installation and involves removing the pressure fitting seal and then the hose clamp of the fluid lines. Last but not the least, refill and also bleed the power steering system.
