The power steering pump is an essential part of the steering system, which makes it easier to maneuver the vehicle by reducing the force needed to turn the steering wheel. With an efficient power steering pump, driving becomes more comfortable and safe, especially when parking or driving in the city. At the Global Parts automotive store you will find a wide selection of used car parts , including power steering pumps, fitted to BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini and others.

How does a power steering pump work?

The power steering pump is a key part of the hydraulic system that works in conjunction with other components such as the steering gear and hydraulic lines. Its main functions are:

• Creating Hydraulic Pressure – The pump generates pressure that assists in steering wheel movement, reducing driver effort.
• Maintaining smooth steering – Ensures consistent performance, regardless of vehicle speed.
• Reduces steering load – Protects other system components from excessive wear, increasing their durability. Power steering pumps are driven by a V-belt or poly-V belt that transmits power from the engine.

Why is it worth taking care of your power steering pump?

A worn or damaged power steering pump can lead to serious steering problems. Typical symptoms include:

• Noises When Turning – Whistling or squeaking sounds may indicate problems with the pump.
• Difficulty turning the steering wheel – An increase in resistance when maneuvering is a signal that the pump is not working properly.
• Power steering fluid leaks – Can damage the pump and other system components. At Global Parts, we offer original used power steering pumps that have undergone extensive quality testing, ensuring their reliability and durability.

How to choose the right power steering pump?

When choosing a power steering pump, there are several key aspects to consider:

• Matching to the vehicle model – Each steering system has its own specific technical requirements. At Global Parts you will find power steering pumps perfectly matched to BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini and others.
• Technical condition – The power steering pump used should be free from mechanical damage and tight to prevent leaks.
• Pump Type – Make sure the pump is compatible with your vehicle, e.g. hydraulic or electro-hydraulic.

Why choose used power steering pumps?

Used car parts , such as power steering pumps, are an economical solution that allows you to save money while maintaining high quality. When choosing used power steering pumps, you gain:

• Lower costs – Used components are much cheaper than new ones, but offer equally high quality.
• Ecology – Recycling car parts supports environmental protection and reduces waste.

How to take care of your power steering pump?
