Power Steering Pump

[jkbreazeale]

Does anybody know how to take off the power steering pump off of a 2004 Suzuki Forenza? I need to replace it because the bearing is going out at the pulley and the noise is borderline unbearable.

Thanks,

My guess is that the motor mount will have to come off "but only after you support the engine. Then just unbolt it and replace. I think????

Well, when I took it to Suzuki of Wilmington, when they found out that I wasn't going to pay for them to fix it, they was able to put the belt back on in 5 minutes... I was just assuming that you pulled the belt off and took out a couple of bolts, but I wasn't sure, thanks for the feed back though I'll look into it tomorrow.

Well the p/s pump bearing is going out on my 05 Forenza with 58k. Dealer estimate $700,

The mech @ the dealer told me on the replacement p/s pump I get to make sure it has the sensor on top, because it cant be taken off the old one. Is that correct?

I am going to do the swap my self. Is there anything else I should do @ the same time?

Can anyone point me to the part @ a fair price?

ANYONE?? It looks like the sensor on top of the pump is able to be removed, is this correct?

I found an A1 CARDONE for ~150 with 10% bing cashback.
