• Q: How to replace the power steering pump on 2008 Chevrolet Aveo?

  A: The first step in Power Steering Pump replacement requires removal of the air cleaner housing by unfastening its bolts and loosening the clamp. Start the Power Steering Pump Drive Belt detachment procedure from the pulley by operating the autotensioner. The power steering fluid drain starts by disconnecting pressure and supply lines from the pump followed by removing the pump assembly through steering pump retaining nut removal. The installing process begins by mounting the pump onto the a/c compressor bracket before tightening the steering pump retaining nuts to 25 n.m (18 lb ft). Secure the power steering supply and pressure lines to the pump while tightening the pressure line union nut to 28 n.m (21 lb ft). Place the pump Drive Belt onto the pulley through the autotensioner before attaching the air cleaner housing with housing bolts and clamp while tightening the bolts to 12 n.m (106 lb in). New fluid should be added to the pump before bleeding out air while checking for leaks; leak sources must be identified to resolve leak points before final bleeding of the system occurs.
