Power Steering Got You Down? It May Be Your Power Steering Pump – By Pelican Parts
The MINI Cooper S uses a different type of power steering setup than most cars. Rather than having the power steering pump driven by the engine belts, the pump is driven by an electric motor. While this frees up some power from not being driven off the engine belts, it also has a disadvantage. As the pump runs, it gets hotter and hotter. It is also located directly below the exhaust manifold, which adds to the heat problems.
This is a project you can do yourself in an hour or less! Covers the Cooper, S & convertible from ’05 – ’08. Click here for further product details.
