Power Steering kaputt - Repair debacle ? Land Rover Discovery / S5-Ep7

The power steering of our 2006 Land Rover Discovery 3 with the TDV6 Diesel makes a whining noise and leaks oil. We replace the power steering pump and hoses. We thought that this will be simple - we thought wrong...

Blacksmiths were looked upon as wizards in ancient times. They took what looked like rock and turned it into useful metal objects! You, on the other hand, Christian can take a blank of metal and turn it into a spare part using a sketch scribbled on a post it note! Now that's what I call magic!

@@hughmarcus1 I would look for something that is easier to work on, that means taking step back in technology. It's hard to say what exactly I would go for. Disco 3 diesel, has no competition in his price range when you look at comfort, off-road capability and technology that was fitted back then. But on the down side there is maintenance fineness that will come for you at some point.

They say you can judge how must a guy does at work by the swarf left on the machine and floor. Real Engineers look at a product and notice more of how it was machined rather than how the part works or Is Integrated into the assembly. Don't Tell Christian he Is so damn clever Vera eh - LOL.

Though I was happy to hear how reliable you late Discovery 4 is - it gives me hope with mine. Now I have to go dashboard diving in my D4 - Amazon have just delivered some grabbing tools today. I have been swapping the internal lights for LED from PowerfulUK and Land Rover did not plug in the passenger footwell light in properly when it was made. The old light worked, but the connector fell off as I removed the old light and I now have to go searcing with grabbers in the hole to try and retreive it. Wish me luck...

Toyoda with a d is actually the name of the family that started Toyota, all those years ago. Akio Toyoda is the current CEO. Kichiiro (sp?) Toyoda was the founder. I don't know if this explains why that pump has Toyoda on it, but Toyota mave have sold units to Land Rover, and said, "this how you do it, Mardell-san".

Hydraulic Hose.....if you took the old pipes to a hydraulic hose specialist, they would replace the flexible sections of the original ones for around €10 per 15cm section. The EU3/4 issue, again the hose specialist would cut the compression band from the wrong hose to allow the correct end and then compress a new band to the section of rubber holding it.

@@Vera_and_Christian If it can be made to start with, it can be remade. Started in the automotive trade in the early 80's and worked all over the world, when I was a mechanic in Antarctica we repaired all our own hoses by carefully cutting off the old crimping and then replacing the hose and putting new crimps on. I remember a AC hose on my L322 going in France and it was only the rubber section that had rubbed though, the new LR hose was €180. I went to several really unhelpful hose specialists in France who didn't want to know...in the end I posted it back to my Dad in Wales who went to the local hydraulic specialist and it was repaired within 20 min using my original metal sections and replacing the damaged rubber... total cost including postage back to France was less than €45. I'll have a bet with you Christian, if it's only the rubber section you are worried about (no damage to the metal sections) post me the hose and I'll get it repaired here in Wales and post it back to you at my own cost. If I can get it done, it'll cost you a Tee Shirt. Brenden

@@Vera_and_Christian I recently took all my P38 hydraulic lines (transmission, engine oil, and steering) to a local hydraulics shop, and they brazed new barbs to the original metal pipes, so they could use standard flexible hoses and crimp fittings. Next time it will be an easy job to replace just the rubber and crimps. Cost was significantly below even Britpart.

I replaced the power steering pump last fall. Struggled for over an hour with the infamous rear bolt until I undid the left engine mount bolt, which allowed me to lift the left side of the engine a couple cm.

Found out a Polish gent had converted a rhd to lhd because they sell better however he inverted the old steering rack and bodged the hoses by using a piece of 12mm aircon pipe , which caused a restriction and the heavy steering. Cost me 250 euros euro for lhd hoses and a used rack from italy 150 euros to fix. Much better watching you work though!

you probably know this, and i'm no desktop mechanic, but i've found a bit of warm water and some fairy liquid helps get difficult pipes to slip on. Great video as usual, love the machining!

I love Land Rover /Range Rover but I also love Citroen 2CV , no cooling system , no ecu , no head gasket . And lots of room to work under the bonnet. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Awesome fabrication and repair job! If you get stuck like this again it may also be possible to silver solder steel AN fittings on the stock hose ends and make your own hose with AN connections. Probably not as much fun for you though LOL.

Once Cristian starts machining a new tool or a new piece of hardware I just think I am watching wizardry. He is a 10x engineer, there cannot be many 10x-ers in the world. I am floored by your resourcefulness sir!

Christian the AC equipment is quite cheap to buy. Got all mine second hand for £200. You need a recovery compressor, vacuum pump, a gauge and hose set and an old empty R134a or R1234 gas bottle. And some PAG oil Bob's yer uncle 😊

I recently had a problem with my power steering hose {not a Landrover} , it only made itself apparent when my mechanic had his head under the hood and i turned the steering.That was the money shot moment.It wasn't apparent until i turned the steering. That was, in Veras words, a debacle.Seized bolts, broken bolts and a previous fix using liquid metal. All sorted now!

I fitted a battery isolator that allows you to disconnect battery power without undoing the battery terminal. Had an audited to keep codes alive. It’s a great modification.

Reminds me of the time I changed my power steering pump out because of a noise. It was still there after the change. So I changed the idler pulley below it that was really the problem.

I also replaced stuff before and it was a idler pulley noise. I bet that is standard in a LR workshop as well. Christian

I wonder if a hydraulic shop could re crimp a new hose with the old fittings?
@Vera_and_Christian
@Vera_and_Christian 6 ай бұрын
Unlikely, because this is all non-standard stuff. Not a single fitting is stock and all is stainless. Christian
