How to Deal with the Noise from the 8th Generation Accord 2.4 Power Steering Pump?
1 Answers
The abnormal noise from the 8th generation Accord 2.4 power steering pump may be caused by internal friction due to insufficient oil. It is necessary to check the fluid level in the reservoir. If it is below the minimum mark, replenish it until the fluid level reaches the maximum mark. Precautions for power steering pump installation and maintenance: 1. Correctly select the grade of hydraulic oil to be used, otherwise it will affect the efficiency and lifespan of the pump. 2. The hydraulic oil used must be clean. Regularly check and periodically replace the oil filter on the pump's suction line. When refueling, the driver must have a filtration device to ensure the cleanliness of the oil. Regularly inspect, clean, or replace the filtration device to keep the oil circuit unobstructed. 3. If the steering pump is not used for a long time, do not immediately operate it at full load upon restarting. Allow at least ten minutes of no-load operation. 4. During use, regularly check the steering pump for leaks, ensure it operates normally, and watch for any impacts or abnormal noises to promptly identify and resolve any issues.
