Sunsong Power Steering Pump Seal Kit P/N:8401492
If worn seals are letting fluid escape from your power steering pump, the Sunsong power steering pump seal kit (8401306) lets you repair the pump rather than replace the entire unit. It is a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1996-1999 Audi A4, 1996-1999 Audi A4 Quattro and 1992-1995 BMW 525i. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
A power steering pump depends on its seals to keep hydraulic fluid inside as it pressurizes the steering system. Signs the pump seals may need replacing include fluid seepage or drips around the pump, a reservoir level that keeps dropping, or pump whine when the fluid runs low. Hoses, lines and the steering gear can also leak, so pinpoint the source before ordering.
