sounds like john eagle.

If the car was recalled they should do the repair regardless of weather or not it has to do with the noise.

Sounds like they are trying to dip in your pockets. As dsickles said, it should be done regardless free of charge.

if the recall was for a leak only, then they're not gonna wanna pay for the replacement of the pump. Now if the recall was for the noise and the pump going bad, then yeah they should.

Honda Cars of Katy, ironically a John Eagle dealer, has the o-ring and the fluid. It cost me $5 and change. I know how to change it.... but I used this thread as a guide:

https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=754586&highlight=power+steering+w hine

I ended up doing a flush of the reservoir and refilling it. I will do it again soon.

Just to inform you guys, we had to change our original location due to scheduling problems with the district. They told us one thing and now they're telling us that the weekend of Dec. 4 they are still having their soccer tournament.

So we are now moving the meet to...
Cullen Park Phase 4
18203 Groeschke Rd.
Houston, Texas 77084
hey so i checked fourm again and location has moved to whats listed above.
