Hello laydeez and Gents. Was cleaning my engine bay and noticed the pump was covered with residue. Found out it was P.S fluid.

Does anyone know how to change the seals?. I don't want to bring it to the dealer and have me charged $280 for the fix. I've done P.S swaps back when I had a GSR but never replaced the seal before.

 

Since no one has any tips on changing the P/S pump seal, I'll just get a used one. Maybe you guys can answer this one.

Is a 06-08 TSX P/S pump compatible on the 04-05 TSX? I'm thinking it should but I want to make sure.

 

I'm not aware of any changes to the P/S pump from 04-05 to 06+. One thing that can be done is calling your Acura Dealer's Parts Department to verify the P/S pump will fit. I've made calls to mine for parts advise and they've been helpful.
If the seal is compromised, why not change the seal rather then also the pump? The seal runs $3-4 dollars from the dealer.

 

True, I can call the parts department to verify.

I can change the seal but never really done it before and was asking if anyone has done it and can offer some advise.

I can swap out pumps but never changed the seal bofore.
