03 07 Honda Accord power steering fix

[@poppyshoessp]

I took my car to the shop to have them look at this very noise. They said $640 for rack and pinion. Came home, searched and found this. Hot tailed it to my honda dealer for the part ($2), came home FIXED IT MYSELF, took all of 5 minutes. I have a 2004 and the small screw is in the front. It's very easy, and I'm a female. THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting.

[@jimithing44]

Mike, Great job! It worked for me. I went to dealership and new pump would be $500. I said no way and found your video after some research. I called dealership and told them the o ring I wanted replaced with all the details. They came back at me with $200. I said no way! They replied..$150? I ordered the part and replaced it, which took shorter than your video. Today was the first cold morning to test it and low and behold, no noise. Part and shipping cost me $15. I wanted to say thanks for taking the time for doing this and if I could buy you a beer, I would. Happy Thanksgiving to all!!

[@Londal1]

Wish I could buy him a beer as well with the money he saved me, very much appreciated.

[@bowler8]

+James Piggot I'm trying this too....I had the recall hose fitted by the dealer, and the O ring is supposed to be fitted at the same time, as its in the kit, my trouble started after I'd taken it for the recall...I guess theyre not replacing them when they should...theyre now trying to sell me a $400 P/S pump....bet this is all it is

[@jimithing44]

+bowler8 same thing happened to me. this is definitely the fix.

[@zugzug6510]

You, sir, are a lifesaver! This is exactly what I needed! $10 for a cheap set of metric wrenches, $2 for the oring and about 10 minutes, and my power steering whine (which sounded JUST like your video) was gone - thanks!

[@palmcouple]

Another success story Mike! Your instructions were perfect! Note: the noise didn't stop immediately after the o-ring replacement - driving a day and letting it sit a night allowed all the air bubbles to bleed out. The next morning it was cold out and no noise. Add up all the money you have saved people and I say you have THOUSANDS of $$$ in good karma coming your way!

[@grullonbb]

I just came from the Honda Dealer, I was having this problem in my car. While I was in the waiting area waiting for them to service my car, I started surfing you-tube and found this video. I could not believe but my car was making the same sound, I walk to the service counter and ask for my keys and refuse to service. I went to the parts window and asked for the 0-ring of the power steering the number in the diagram reflects #23.Thank you so much.

[@cosibella5781]

2004 Honda Accord (6 cylinder). My auto mechanic skill set is a 3 out 10 (10 being great). I followed the video and had the job done in 15 minutes. I went to a Honda store for the o-ring (which was red in color). I also bought a new red cap for the fluid reservoir (total cost $2.25). I borrowed a metric (10) wrench from my neighbor .. Piece of cake... Thank you so much! Noise completely gone...

[@rainofglory]

I'm a single mom of three, and my 2007 Honda just started doing this (one week before Christmas) and I could not afford to get it fixed a the premium prices the dealership wanted to charge me. I came home to google "o-ring repair 2007 honda accord" and was able to fix it myself!! I couldn't believe it!! Thank you so much! You have really helped me.

[@poesface1414]

This video saved me $$ by avoiding a suggested steering pump replacement on my 06 CRV . I printed out the TSB and took it to the dealer who ordered the part and fitted it with instant results. Thank you Michael.

[@eatersofdead]

I just did this to my 2007 Honda Accord V6 Clutch. I have little to no mechanical aptitude. Yet after watching this Video I completed the project in 10 minutes. That includes finding the right tools and clean up. Thank you so much. Thank you for saving me 1-200 dollars from a mechanical shop.

[@eatersofdead]

Now 2 days later. No sound. My care sounds like a new car for 0.92 cents. Outstanding!

[@hubbstyle]

Took my car into the Honda dealership cause of the noise. They quoted me $700 to replace the power steering pump. Was about to agree, but decided to do a quick search on my iphone for "honda accord power steering noise". Came across your video. Followed your instructions and saved me $699! Thanks! And they kept trying to convince me that it wasn't an o-ring issue. Due to this, I decided to use the money saved to buy the tools necessary to do my own maintenance from now on.

[@james62370]

I have the same problem on my 2004 Accord EX. I brought my vehicle in for the Power Steering Hose Recall. The dealer says I need a new power steering pump and a new drive belt. He said $433 for the power steering pump and $161 for a new drive belt. I told them to just note the recommendations and I would decide later. I can't believe even with a Service Bulletin, they recommended changing the entire Power Steering Pump. I have not fixed the issue yet, but glad I stumbled across your video.

[@opp939]

Thank you, 2006 honda accord, 3.0l V6, same symptoms, foamy liquid, whining while cold and disappears when engine heats up. followed the procedure, the o-ring was cheap, and it worked. Took me 10 minutes. Thank you!!!

[@mattykakesmakes]

Thanks for the video and diagnosis! Mine wasn't making any noises, but there was definitely a leak somewhere as the pump was barely working. After I replaced that o-ring it worked like new! It was easy to see that the old seal was dried out once I took it apart. This saved me from jumping straight to pulling the whole pump off and rebuilding it. Five minutes and $3 later, boom, done. I'm very grateful brochacho. - 2007 Accord

[@Accutron81]

+Matthew Miller Thank you for this info. Mine seems to be leaking also, but yet there is no noise like yours. This reply of yours seems to answer my question. Hopefully this O-ring saves me a bunch of money and some headaches.

[@AronTripp]

Thanks so much Mike. Seriously saved me big $$$$. Took me 10 minutes to drive to the dealership, $1.50 for the o-ring and less than 5 minutes to swap it out. Hopefully I won't need any more advice, but if I do, you're channel will be my first stop.

[@kristopheralden8440]

I was experiencing the same noise...thought it was my serpentine belt. Took the car (07 Accord V6) to Honda and they said my PS pump was bad...$585 to fix. I told them no thank you and found your video. I just swapped out the o-ring, which I bought from the Honda dealer, and it sounds good. Ironically, the parts guy at Honda knew exactly which o-ring I needed because lots of people do the same thing....wish he would tell the service guys. Thank you for taking the time to make the video.

[@clamtime]

Thank-you Mike for this video...a three minute change and the annoying whine is gone - outstanding! Thanks again, Mayson

[@motemotola9821]

Thanks Mike, I did exactly what you said, and it worked perfectly, Honda dealer said it would cost 640 dollars to fix.We the consumer must thank you for protecting us against the corporate crooks who rob us every day. Total cost was .77 cents !!!

[@erniesanchez79]

Mike thank you so much for this video !! I went to get my power steering pump checked out. the mechanic told me I needed a new one power steering pump. I thought that was very odd so I KZbin it saw your video first can't freaking believe it the o ring was the problem you saved me hundreds thank you so much mike !!! Cost me 2 dollars.

[@jerryweaver274]

Thanks for tip on the o ring , i have that exact color honda and v-6 engine going to buy one and fix .

[@islamiaautomotive]

We ran into this issue last evening with a customer that had this exact same problem on a 2003 Odyssey. The pump was making a loud noise and the fluid was foaming out of the reservoir. We were unsure if it was the power steering pump or the rack-n-pinion. Thankfully, I ran into this video last night and this morning decided to changed the seal only. The procedure was a Success!!!! Thanx a million for the post, it truly helped :) JD Isla MIa Automotive

[@sgarner98]

Nevermind, I filled the resovoir all the way up and turned the wheels back and forth until sound stopped. Thanks for the video. Saved me some $.

[@coltsroc09]

After watching this video, I had this exact problem. In the cold and snowy weather, my car made this horrible whining sound after start up. It seemed hard to believe that a simple "o-ring" would make all the difference but I am officially a believer in this video and the solution/repair, he was spot on! After installing new O-ring, my car made a quick sound again but quickly stopped, just because it had to seed into place. Bottom line, it worked and you saved me $$$$ that took 10 minutes and cost

[@Londal1]

Took my 05 Accord to the mechanic for power steering issues, he said the pump was bad. After watching this vid I picked up o-rings just to give it a try and just like that no more whining or bubbles, thanks for the savings.

[@scalasara]

Thank you so much, Michael Thornberry, for sharing this. You saved me $700 plus tax in Vegas, the noise and leak in the reservoir is gone!

[@paulgarrin8636]

Mike: Thank you very much. Your video helped me fix my son's car. Part was 97 cents including tax from Honda, I thought I needed to replace the whole pump for $300. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@alexandervega94]

I saw your video after so many days looking and different price quotes..$695 to fix...I had to buy the 5 pack of seals for $17 for my 2007 Honda Pilot but saved me a ton. Thank you Michael

[@kalmian]

Thank you so much for your video...the dealer wants to charge me $285 to re-seal my power steering pump....I bought this car brand new! You are awesome bro!

[@iluvbowhuntingtoo]

Thanks Michael .. this fixed the problem in my 04 Honda Accord. .98 cents and about 5 minutes of work .. saved me a lot of money

[@richardspears3536]

Thanks Mike had the same Issue and had no idea what it was. Thanks to you, you saved me time and money, i bought the O-ring for a few dollars and replaced it, it took me like 5 minutes thanks for teaching us Awesome video thanks so much.

[@kerchak1976]

Had the same problem with my Accord 2003 V6. Cost me around $0.93 and now it is fixed. Thanks so much for this video!

[@tvsedg]

Had the same noise issue on my 2004 Accord. Watched the video purchsed an o ring for $1.23 at the dealership used the 10mm wrench. The o ring was completely black. Replaced it with the new red o ring and works perfectly. Noise is gone. Thank You

[@jamiej1414]

I did this on my '05 v6 and it worked PERFECTLY, Completely stopped the noise on starting. One tip that I did read was that you can pull up the steering fluid reservoir and move it out of the way, it just slides right off the bracket (this made it way easier to reach under the pump with a wrench......Thanks again!

[@Concordeagle]

Thanks just did mine and it worked! $3 for the oring vs. $450 for dealer to do it. This video saved me a bunch of money!

[@perryjimenez9091]

Thank you very much Mike. I followed exactly what you have showed on your video and that fixed the problem for only $1.40. I saved at least $500.00 which the dealership was charging me for a new power steering pump. Also, they want to change the belt tensioner as the service advisor told me it is part of the noise steering problem. I was seriously doubtful with the tensioner. That's another several $$$. Thanks again and keep up the good work.

[@daifeichu]

Replaced mine today and it got rid of the sound. Thank you very much Michael. I wasn't careful and ended up breaking the first O-ring and had to go and get a second one. For the price I would suggest buying two of them.

[@mjporr]

I never post like this...BUT... before I spent the $640 at the stealership, or the $400 with the mechanic 'on the side', I figured it was worth the $.82 for the red O ring. 10min during my lunch break and BAM, fixed. Money saved will pay for one more weekend on the slopes! Thanks for the post!!

[@sftzclem]

You made my month! I thought I was doomed to buying a new powering steering pump on my 2006 Odyssey. I replaced the 63 cent O ring and the problem went away immediately. Many Thanks!!!

[@Protogenes100]

Thanks Michael Thornberry. I am from Brazil and I got the same problem in my Accord 2007, V6 3.0 during 6 months. The people from HONDA dealer, ask me about US 1.400,00 to solve the problem, .I saw your video and expend less then 20 minutes to change the O ring. The problem was solved like a miracle. Thanks very much. You make my day. Protógenes Guimarães - Alphaville São Paulo Brazil - 07-13-2013

[@philiprichards6335]

Thank you Mike, we installed the replacement O ring and the sound is gone. Your instructions are invaluable. I am very grateful for your video.

[@DaveHarris6]

found your video, ordered the 10¢ part, replaced the o-ring last night and it's exactly what I needed! fixed and done, thank you!!

[@Croaksz]

+Dave Harris from where did you order the part? thanks,

[@usmanarshad88]

yesterday i watched your video....and today i am here to just comment and THANK YOU SO MUCH Michael Thornberry you saved my 2500 Saudi Riyals.....Thanks again from Saudi Arabia

[@bobvalicenti233]

Thank you such much for this video! You helped me fix my 2005 4cyl accord in 10 minutes and $1.33 plus tax. The dealership wanted to replace the pump for about $500.00! Super job!

[@daythunder7710]

I change the line o ring as well which is right next to it. they both cost me $4 change and that fixed the problem. I went ahead and flush the steering fluid as well. You Rock Mike, Thank You so much. Now Feels so good driving my car.

[@joeortiz6109]

I went a head an changed the high pressure hose O ring that bolts into the pump on top it was messed up also good job .mike.

[@yogaandjesus381]

After about a hundred videos, I found what my problem was in my Subaru! Thanks for the video.

[@kristindyer2288]

Great video!! Thanks for relieving much headache and for under $10. Also took me less than 5 minutes and now when I turn my wheel it doesn't sound like there is a tiny wookie under my hood. (2003 Honda Accord) Thanks Again!!

[@timpjynx]

Long live the internet!!! Had this problem on both my Odyssey and my Accord. Before stumbling on this video I had already had the shop replace the entire pump, but I didn't think much about it since I had an extended warranty that covered it. But then I decided to google it instead paying out of pocket for an Accord pump. THANK YOU THANK YOU for this video.. 82 cents!

[@maxbiz1114]

Mike - awesome tip and video. It worked like a charm on my Honda Accord 2006. Saved $375.00 and headaches. O-ring was $1.17 at the dealership and also changed the fluid with a turkey baster (saved $49.00) and poured in original honda fluid. Noise is gone and drives like a charm. Many thanks!!

[@gregc33487]

Thanks Mike. Just got a 06 Accord from my brother and its got about 212k miles. It needs some love but still runs pretty good. This is one of the fixes I need to do. I used to have an 87 Honda accord with the flip up headlights. Ended up scrapping it with 313k miles because it needed a water pump. Also The manual transmission lost 3rd or 4th gear (I forget which gear exactly) but other than that it was a great little car. I really wish I had kept it.

[@michaelcorrieri6117]

Bwahahahahaa! Repair guys offered to replace my pump and reservoir for about $1200. This $3.99 part took care of it. I never bothered looking in the reservoir, which was bubbling like a witches cauldron. Big thanks Michael, you saved me a huge chunk of money!

[@kamilkutek1043]

Michael you are awesome. The longest part of fixing this was buying the part. it took me less than 5 minutes to change the oring and it fixed that annoying sound. Now my 06 Accord doesnt sound like a junker. I just wish i found your video before driving to 3 clueless mechanics and buying 3 bottles of power steering fluid. VERY EASY AND CHEAP FIX PEOPLE!!! if you can can you make a video how to replace rotors and brake pads for 06 accord?

[@efrendlm5020]

This worked great on my 99 Acura 3.2TL!! It cost me $1.10 from Honda dealership and about 40mins from start to finish. Thank you for this info I found it very helpful!!

[@GabrielGonzalez-nd2zo]

I have a 2003 Honda Accord EX 2.4L, and I was able to fix the power steering noise thanks to this video. thank you very much Michael Thornberry.

[@mrtuntun211]

Thank you so much. I went to Honda with the part number that I saw on your video and got the new O-ring. Replaced it and the noise went away immediately. Thanks again. Easiest fix.

[@robertvalentine3181]

Thank You!!! $.88 cent part, fixed the bubbles and runs great. THANK YOU AGAIN. saved me $800 + according to Honda

[@kyraandamysdad]

Awesome! Thanks to this video I fixed the problem for $1.47. Some hints: even with rags it's hard to keep spilled fluid from getting on the drive belt. I cleaned it with brake parts cleaner. Also I found I could use a standard Sears 10mm box-end wrench by threading it through a hole in the pulley, and turning the pulley as needed to get a good angle.

[@masterblasterextreme]

This repair cost me about 75 cents. Thank alot Mike. Cheapest Honda repair ever!!

[@Zulda7231]

Great video; I got the o-ring from the dealer for 98 cents. I started to tell him the part I needed, and then he cut in with "so you want the seal that everyone has to replace?" I replaced it -- works great. Car had 137,000 miles when I had to replace the seal. Took about 10 minutes, and I saved a few $100. Thanks

[@tahseenjamal]

Michael, I want to thank you for saving my $750 in India. And you won't believe the best of the mechanics were so dumb to every time point at pump as the culprit. After seeing your video I got the O-Ring changed and the pump was noiseless. Can't thank you enough :-)

[@antiocososa4453]

This was exactly my car, thanks I did exactly as shown and my car no longer makes that noise or spills fluid. Thank you so much. Honda Accord 2007.

[@ryann.9072]

Michael, thanks for the vid. We have an 07 Odyssey with the same noise, air in the PS reservoir and a new fluid leak. The Honda Odyssey TSB said to R/R the PS pump. Will go Honda dealer to get the o-ring and install later tomorrow. An o-ring is a lot easier than a pump. Thanks again for you insight! - Ryan

[@james62370]

I just wanted to update that this fix has worked for me. Thanks again Michael.

[@HellspawnUSMC]

Thank you Mike! As of 10 mins ago, I replaced the same o-ring in my 2007 Accord V6 and now my bubbling reservior leak and loud ps pump have been resolved. It cost me 76 cents for this fix, from Honda. This video was super helpful and informative.

[@Jamo349]

Same problem on my 2006 Accord V6. Changed o-ring. Problem solved. Thanks so much.

[@A1_Andrew]

James Monson do you have a website or something where you got the part.? I've been trying to find it but they don't have it at autozone or oriley?

[@Jamo349]

Andres Mendez I bought the part from my local honda dealer. Part # 91345-RDA-A01

[@jcs1592]

James Monson So you didn't need to replace thee pump, just the ring? Thanks!

[@luisrodriguez-zo4sr]

My cari is a honda accord 2006, 4 cylinder, I had the same problem and solved it thanks to this video, thank you very much, the dealer change the o-ring in less than 30 minutes, the cost was only $ 10 dlls, Mike thank you very much again.

[@CaseyOverman]

Thank you Michael for your help on this job. I ran into the same issue on a 2007 Odyssey. My only two recommendations would be to pull as much Power Steering fluid out of the reserve as possible before you start, and purchase a "stubby" 10 mm wrench from sears in order to get into the very tight spot Mike describes at about the 3 minute mark. The wrench will cost about $8 and the removal of the PW fluid will save you some mess.

[@dcarlin3]

Thanks! This fixed my 2006 V6 accord sedan. Saved me a lot of money!

[@WolfMarine95076]

Outstanding, you sir are a genius and saved many of us a lot of money. I also made my wife very happy by fixing this issue with your advise. Thank You!

[@christianfred]

This video is a life saver! Thanks man great information! Every where i went they told it was a pump replacement over 200 dlls but didnt buy it because only when its cold made that horrible noise! Got the problem fix thanks!

[@DoubleJizzle2000]

Thanks for the vid, Michael, you saved me $300+! I have a 2003 Honda Accord V6 which has had the power steering noise problem for about a year. The new o-ring cost 98 cents at my local Honda dealer and was a small job to replace. The only difficult part was finding the right wrench (10mm, I think) that would fit in the small space around the bolt. I have been noise free now for two days and could not be happier! Thanks again!

[@55hartley]

Thank you for this video! I'm a novice when it comes to working under the hood, but your video showed me exactly what to do. Honda wanted to charge me $125 and I did it for $6. I was happy to see the black O-ring inside the housing, so I'm pretty sure that was the problem.

[@njoogle]

Good Job. I have a 2005 Accord V6 that had the same symptoms: power steering pump noise (only in temps below about 25 deg F), frothy power steering fluid that would sometimes overflow. Bought the O-Ring for $0.75 at Honda dealer and replace the part in a few minutes. Noise is gone. The only catch for me was that I had to buy a 10mm wrench with a box end since I couldn't get the open-ended wrench to grab the bolt (the pulley is in the way). I ended up buying an offset wrench with a box end just to make sure I wouldn't need to make another trip.

[@MrDhucky10]

we have the same car and trim. I bough the 8mm, 10mm and ratchet and it was too long and couldnt use ratchet. Now im planning to use open end wrench but reading your comment im buying the offset wrench. I hope it works! My car is making noises during cold weather and suddenly found out bubbles on power steering tank and twice it overflow.

[@CalixtoElDiablo]

These are the EXACT symptoms on my 2007 Accord. I am ordering this part immediately. Will update this post accordingly.

[@DrVuNguyen]

Thank you very much for your video. It worked perfectly for my Honda-CRV 2002. There is no more whining noise & bubbles in steering fluid-reservoir after changing that tiny O-ring (part price is just over 1$, bought from a Honda dealer).

[@the1964gman]

Yes, this is true. I have a 2004 Honda accord ex 4cyl. It whined like crazy, all the time! I went to Honda purchased the o'rings for 2 bucks. Installed it in about 10 minutes. The only problem I had was at first it did not fix the problem, I was getting ready to purchase a new pump. Then I thought if the problem is caused by air then maybe air is still in the system. So I jacked up the front end, and started it up, then turned the steering back in forth all the way. This worked. I no longer have the noise. I also changed the serpentine belt because it had some cracks in it. Hope this helps. Thanks Mike.

[@bowler8]

+Gordon Loop I'm trying this too....I had the recall hose fitted by the dealer, and the O ring is supposed to be fitted at the same time, as its in the kit, my trouble started after I'd taken it for the recall...I guess theyre not replacing them when they should...theyre now trying to sell me a $400 P/S pump....bet this is all it is

[@TheMandruv]

Thanks! This fixed my 2005 2.4 Accord sedan. Perfect! *91345-RDA-A01*

[@DangerClose13E]

Thanks Mark, I was all ready to look for a new pump. I saw your video and decided to look. Dude! You save me alot of money!

[@cwl206]

actually I caused the problem in my 2000v6 accord. I was replacing my side engine mt and was too rough on the PS fluid hoses and somehow got air into my system probably thru that 0ring area. It had EXACTLY the same symptoms.The fix was exactly the same and I also replaced the entire PS fluid and now it is steering like brand new! Thanks again.

[@v0rpalWeap0n]

Thank you for making this video! I'm doing this on my 2007 Accord in about 15 minutes. Keep your fingers crossed!

[@v0rpalWeap0n]

UPDATE: Done, and it worked as advertised! No more horrible noise when I start the vehicle. Again, thank you very much for sharing the procedure.

[@edwinarivas5297]

Great video had the problem fix. The noise cumming from the power steering was driving me nuts.. . THANKS

[@famousaudio]

I have all these symptoms on wendsday I will be trying your fix ... thank you so much for such a through video PLEASE POST MORE.

[@beautifulfouse]

Wow, just like you said. Only made the noise in the morning. Fixed cheap. Thank you.

[@blitzhappy323]

Thanks for the info. My 07 accord had the exact problem. Did just like this video showed. No more whining or moaning! Thanks.

[@darrylsaundry4618]

Great tip, nothing on Mitchell regarding this. Worked like a charm. Thanks a lot!

[@cwl206]

I have a 2000 accord v6 coupe and this procedure is virtually identical. I can confirm even the o ring is the same. Excellent video and job as even haynes doesn't mention this. BTW u sure make removing the bolt look easy. mine was a beach to remove.

[@kdabagh]

Wow!!! Mike, thank you very much! You just saved me $600.I'm glad I watched your video before replacing the actual pump.

[@toy96]

great video, it affects ALL V6's from honda/acura, very common. O-ring: P/N 91345-RDA-A01, HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN TSB 07-086. getting out the bolt is a pain, I borrowed an expensive swivel socket, would not fit. Tried good old 10 mm small wrench did the job!

[@ImOnlySaiyan9000]

Wow! Was super skeptical of this working but it did! Saved me a ton of money! Thank you!!

[@christopherdelconte5632]

Thank you for your video really save me I would’ve spent $170 on a new power steering pump but it was just a $17 washer

[@pilas3000]

Thank you so much. Wonderful video. You saved me $210. The part only cost $1.26.

[@tigaspinoypower]

Thanks! I did mine...Fuk! Charging me to replace the whole assembly. So I do it my self and cost me 5 bucks together with fresh power steering fluid. No noise,leaks no problems...

[@fcsturniolo]

Mike thanks it was an easy fix, now will see what happens in the morning.

[@fcsturniolo]

After I found the right tools it went great no more sound, the power steering unit is fixed. and by the way Honda told me that I needed a new unit and the new ring would not fix it...

[@davidgautam1540]

+Frank Sturniolo where can i get those part from. I have to go to Honda dealer or I can get from auto-zone.

[@ababner317]

+Frank Sturniolo I've really come to distrust our local Honda dealership. Seems the private garages are much more honest and cheaper too.

[@fcsturniolo]

+David GTM I got mine from the dealer but auto zone sells a pack of different sizes

[@fcsturniolo]

+Ab Abner Me too I just went to get a key replaced and they wanted 200 / rip off

[@91GFred]

Nice video, I was about to replace my PS Pump tomorrow because of these same symptoms. I hope the O-Ring is all I need.

[@frankconte2]

Thanks worked like a charm. 1 dollar and five minutes

[@rcosmeroc]

The recal is for the power steering return line, not for this issue. Honda is telling people that the noise is a leak from the power steering pump ($249+labor) which, from the honda dealership, comes with this o-ring installed. Thank God for this video I only paid $0.89 for this o-ring and did it my self. No more noise!!

[@aluna512]

Michael, thank you for posting this video. This is the same problem I was having with my '05 Odyssey.

[@theDIGITALperception]

Thank you! Honda just told my wife it would be $500 to fix the leak. I'm hoping this is the issue.

[@kayyu6352]

omg.. I have 2004 accord EX v6 that has exact same noise problem. I has driven me nuts for many years. I will try this tomorrow :) Thanks for good tip!

[@bowler8]

+Kay Yu I'm trying this too....I had the recall hose fitted by the dealer, and the O ring is supposed to be fitted at the same time, as its in the kit, my trouble started after I'd taken it for the recall...I guess theyre not replacing them when they should...theyre now trying to sell me a $400 P/S pump....bet this is all it is

[@BikeLifeHooligan]

After having the recall done and it still had the noise, did you then change the o ring and that solve the problem? Thanks

[@metalprep2]

Thank you Michael! Found your video and fixed the noise! Just as easy to fix as your video! Keep the great videos coming!

[@1hottestpink]

Fixed my car for $1.40. Thanks Mike!

[@chaospx]

I Performed this DIY on my 2004 Honda Civic, and it worked like a Champ! Same Orange O Ring, same part number. Fluid was bubbling and overflowing from the reservoir when I shut the engine off. Problem solved!
