    the pump is sometimes repairable...

    but its just not worth it especially with a sub 50/50 success rate.

    fit a new one.

    thought i better give an update on this problem........

    i pulsed in compressed air with an air blower into the breather hole in the reservoir cap.......
    i dont know what pressure was in there......but i could see the hoses starting to expand......

    well.....the reservoir didnt split in two like i thought it would........

    but i didnt have any oil leaks anywhere........the pump is bone dry.......so are the hoses.....

    im thinking i should change the pump........cos its cheaper than the box........


    would a faulty pressure relief valve cos the oil to aerate/froth........?


    also.......where would be the best place to get a power steering pump in sydney......?

    Hi Tony,

    Got the Disco's replacement from Karcraft only because it was closer to me than Land Vehicle Spares.

    Mine was spewing PAS fluid and the reservoir fluid was aerated so it was a no brainer.

    I have a surplus 300 tdi PS pump that has been stuck together with gunk if you want to take a gamble
