Fig. 1. Removing the power steering pump: 1 – Mounting bolts
Remove the three mounting bolts to the multi-function bracket and remove the power steering pump (Fig. 1).
Installation
Installation is the reverse of removal.
Tighten to the specified torque:
- – Power steering pump mounting bolts (21 Nm);
- – High-pressure line fitting on the steering gear (21 Nm).
First tighten the two mounting bolts on the accessory drive belt side to the specified torque, then the bolt on the opposite side.
The removed belt must be replaced.
Replace the tensioner and idler belt along with the belt. Rollers.

Checking the intermediate shaft
Fig. 4. Measuring the Telescopic Shaft Length
Check
These vehicles are equipped with a non-disassemblable "telescopic shaft - steering shaft - steering column" unit.
If the steering shaft universal joint yoke clamp bolt cannot be tightened, or if after a collision you are unable to verify that the telescopic shaft length is within specifications, replace the entire steering column assembly (Fig. 4).
Make sure the telescopic shaft length is: L = 313.90 ±1 mm.
Do not pull on the telescopic shaft (after an impact).
