In this video I will show you very common problem on many Honda vehicles both 4 cyl and V6. If your Honda has a loud grinding or squealing noise, you may need to replace the o ring on the hi and low pressure hose on the power steering pump. Also make sure you have proper amount of power steering fluid in the reservoir. This is a simple and inexpensive fix, and worth trying before spending more money on replace other steering components.

After a decade of cold morning whining and whizzing, I read this. Had the signature frothy/bubbly fluid. Awesome fix - 1 hour to fetch the parts, $8 including a bottle of fluid at the dealer, and 30 mins to do the job. A lot of fluid leaked, so be careful and use rags to protect belts, etc. Using a short (or cut down) 10 mm was key. Thanks so much - worked like a charm. Side note: the parts guy at the dealership knew exactly where these o-rings were when I started talking - no part numbers or anything required. I guess it is common.

[@user-hb9jz7ne3w]

One more tip to add - there are some articles on the Honda forums that talk about the "new" power steering reservoir with the white dot on it. If you don't have this, make sure you look it up before tackling this project. Since you are draining fluid and removing hoses anyway, you'd want to spend the extra $17 to knock this out at the same time. No kidding that the front facing screw is a bear to access. Finally I picked up a 10mm box wrench at Home Depot with the smallest profile possible. By moving the power steering reservoir up and to the right, I was able to make just enough room to get my big hands in there. With the right tool it took 20 minutes. Only needed a bottle and a half of power steering fluid after using a turkey baster to pull out as much ps fluid out of the reservoir as possible. That way I didn't make as much of a mess when pulling off the hose to the pump. Great recommendation of keeping the reservoir lid off to allow air to escape. As always, great video! I always look for your Honda videos before tackling a new project.

[@lard1892]

and the reservior to pump hose

[@user-hb9jz7ne3w]

@@lard1892 No kidding! In my case i think moving around the reservoir exposed a cracked (old) hose that needed replacing. It allowed air to slowly seep into the system and I think the air is what causes the Honda pumps to make noise even after the primary repair is completed. It's difficult to pinpoint, and you have to shoot the parts cannon at the power steering system to finally figure it out. I also had to eventually replace the high pressure hose to get all of the gremlins out.

[@alantrzecki7742]

Couldn't thank you enough for this simple fix to power steering noise. Was told by the dealer needed new power steering pump costing hundreds of $$. Replacing the o rings did the trick and for just a few dollars. If you're having issues with noise or minor leaking it's worth a try.

[@dial2fast]

Excellent to hear. Really appreciate your sharing your experience. Cheers!

[@stan_senior]

I’m going to try this as well. The dealer told me I need a new pump and high pressure hose. For under $10.00 I’ll give this a try first.

[@ericpeterman9436]

Hey, this worked a charm for my 2009 Ody. About a year ago PS started to have the classic whine/growl, began to need fluid occasionally, and steering became harder and harder to turn, especially at low/no speeds. Now it's quiet and easy to turn. Getting the bottom bolt out with my shorter fingers was a real pain. Cleaning the area well and moving some hoses helped. Also removing the PS reservoir from it's bracket and lowering it kept fluid loss to a minimum.

[@SuperSnakePlissken]

Thanks for posting this video. I’ve got 210,399 miles on my 2008 Honda Odyssey. Literally the best vehicle I’ve ever owned. It wasn’t until just recently that I had to start doing repairs on this vehicle. When I tell people I made it to 200,000 miles on the entire original engine same alternator same starter nothing ever replaced nobody believes me. Outside of maintenance and parts that were supposed to be replaced at certain times that’s it. It’s a shame that Honda has gone away from reliable gas motors to hybrid shit.

[@Will24three]

FYI the j series is still in production today. 96-present. So Honda still makes reliable gas engines.

Many thanks for the video! I was told by the Honda dealer that the 'technician' would rebuild the p/s pump with 'o-rings' for $340.00. I declined that service, went to the dealer and bought the orange o-ring part# OEM Honda 91345-RDA-A01 for $1.00 with tax! Saved $339.00 plus tax.

[@hxhdfjifzirstc894]

Rebuild LMAO. They would make you wait 3 hours too, so you know it was a big job.

[@menenzayas]

same symptoms on my Odyssey; since I didn't have this nice video available, I took my van to the Honda dealer ... and the rest is history ($$$$)

[@scottschmucker5622]

Went to the stealership, they charged me $21.85 for the two O-rings and fluid. Then the guy told me that the orange ring was for the high-pressure hose and the black ring was for the low pressure hose (WRONG!!) I didn’t re-watch your video, and ended up installing them like the dealer said. Let’s just say it was not pretty. Foam everywhere. So I reversed the position of the O-rings as per your video, and now everything works perfectly. Thank you!

[@chadlerstv]

Just want to thank you for posting this vedio. My van started whining sounds a couple of weeks ago and I found your vedio on youtube. so I replaced the o-rings and fixed the problem. Only thing I wanted to add is when you disconnecting the hose, hang the hose up to prevent losing the fluid. and put a carboard under the car to collect the fluid. thanks again!

[@kimberblake4215]

Just did this on my 2010 Odyssey. Cost about $6 total for orings and fluid. Worked perfect. Dealer wanted $275 to rebuild the pump. 😡 Thanks for posting this fix!

Very good to hear. Thanks for sharing!

[@kimberblake4215]

I spoke too soon. Took the van out today and it's still making the sound. It's weird, it makes the sound when the AC comes on, or when in gear, or when turning the wheel. With the AC off and in Park it doesn't make any noise. I'll get a video today and try to post here.

[@jaydenbray2759]

Hey thats exactly what my odyssey is doing. Did you figure out the problem? ^^

[@tomtsao1230]

Thanks so much for posting this detailed instruction! Totally solved my noise. I lost a lot more PS fluid than you did, even with towels in place. I would put cardboard underneath. Other key for me was the need for a stubby wrench.

[@claudeb.hardcastleii6925]

Super awesome video. I’ve been leaking fluid for sometime now, and the last time I purchased some, another customer said he had the same issue and found it solved when he replaced the rings. Less than $10.00. Wow!

[@CRAPO2011]

Excellent tip on removing the wiring harness to get more wrench swinging space was identical to my older 1999-2004 model. Thanks for explaining clearly great vid :-)

[@KSMike1]

Great video! When the bolt on mine was tightened by the previous installer, it just happened to “land” where my normal box-end wrench couldn’t get a bite on it before hitting the motor mount (even a 12-point thin-wall wrench). The solution for me was an offset wrench (one example is Craftsman #CMMT44350, which one of my local Ace Hardware stores had ONE of in stock). The offset made it possible to gain enough additional clearance with the pump pulley to get a bite on the bolt. Another tip: as soon as I put a little force on the hose from the pump fitting back to the reservoir, the hose cracked - so I’m glad I’d bought another one prior to starting the job. (My van is an 07 with 203K miles.) This is also the perfect time to replace your PCV valve if you haven’t done that lately.

[@jyothikarnavar]

I too changed the o-rings on my 2009 honda accord 2.4 ivtec and these oem parts costed me just Rs214 equivalent to $3. Thanks for this great video.

Great vid! Super easy fix. I had the noise for a few weeks. Watched your video, bought parts on the way home from work (@ $8 at the Honda dealer), did the fix in my driveway in about 30 minutes. After the bolt cracked loose on the low pressure side I was able to get my index fingers in to unscrew it. Put it back in the same way. Like others, I bent the metal wiring harness holder out of the way for easier access. Nice and quiet for 2+ weeks now. 2008 Pilot - 172,000 miles.

Eliminated PS noise that I have been enduring for years.... Thanks!

[@supboy666]

This completely eliminated the bubbles/foaming in my PS reserve. I also took the time to remove the reserve, wash it off with some additional fluid to get rid of the residue inside and re installed it with fresh fluid. Try this if you’re PS is noisy and bubbly and you’re changing the orings

[@arrowpig1996]

This worked really well. I found it easier to remove the serpentine belt for wrench clearance,.and then it was easy to take to pump off to get to that low pressure input bolt. Really appreciate your work.

[@pj6742]

Replaced both O-Rings and noise was gone immediately, I didn't even need to bleed out the air, amazing. Before it would whine and foam up I have a 2000 Honda accord v6 and it was very tough removing that 10mm lower section. I had to move the alternator wire and remove the hose but still it was hard to get to the nut. I found out that using a flat spanner wrench, SUPER THIN and small, with it I was able to easily get in there and open it. My flex wrench would not work the head was too big, so a flat wrench or a stubby wrench is absolutely necessary. Ive heard an offset wrench or curved wrench can work too

[@anthonybarba9834]

Great video! Glad I researched to do the o-rings first before replacing the $$$ pump. Easy BUT that first bolt ...WOW it was a pain. I had to have MAJOR PATIENCE. Also I had to remove the power steering reservoir to get my hand in there. Thanks for making this video!!!

The rack is a big job. You'll see why it costs so much. You ahould consider inspecting Tie-rods and some suspension parts and have them on hand to replace if you have the means to. It is a good time to do it. Tie Rod ends at least.

[@jessebushman2426]

I had real trouble accessing that 10mm bolt underneath the low pressure hose. Ended up taking off loosening the bolt on the pulley for the power steering pump, then taking the serpentine belt off the pulley and removing the pulley from the pump. Then unbolted the pump to be able to move it to access that one bolt. I had a 10mm open end box wrench but after more than an hour of messing with it simply couldn't get it to work. The closed box end on mine was a ratcheting end, so it was too thick to fit over the nut (very little space between the edge of the nut and the plastic piece that inserts into the pump). If I have to do it again, I'm just going to buy a small closed end, non-ratcheting 10mm wrench and hope that fits over and works as is shown in the video. The O-rings were cheap - $2 each. And the repair worked like a charm.

It Helped a lot I am not losing Fluid level like I use to but still on cold mornings like below 40F it makes some noise noise, not as loud or as much as it use to, after a little bit then goes away for the day. I was hoping the fluid and its conditions would of completely solved my problem but looks like it has not but helped it alot.

I found your video on power steering very useful. My 2009 Honda accord lately has given me cause for concern. I notices the noise and bought a fluid thinking that was the cause because it went low.

@@annereuter2630 I just went to the dealership to buy the part so I knew I had the right piece. I did to work myself though. I do most of my work on my own unless it's a really large job that I don't have the equipment for.

[@joshthomas2807]

Thank you! What an easy fix! So much easier/cheaper than replacing a PSP!

My 2006 accord power steering fluid was pouring out of reservoir cap and my pump was whining. After changing the pressure hose O ring it was instantly fixed. $1.50 fix

[@thurm101]

Thanks for this informative video. I will do this tomorrow in the cold so I think it will be easy.

[@RelaxAndSmokeMeth]

2008 TSX tight steering and when stopped makes a strapping noise like you're pulling a belt quickly through something. O-ring maybe the issue? Power steering fluid is a little over the max line.

[@uphill248]

Thank You so much for this video. I have the same vehicle with the same problem. I will try this before taking it to a mechanic.

[@avisimhon7473]

Thank you for the video. It helped me fix the noise problem on my 2006 odyssey.

[@dial2fast]

Thanks for sharing your experience! Good to hear it's fixed.

[@abelvargas5473]

My 2007 odissey leaks from the power steering pump, will I fix the problem by replacing the o rings? Thanx

[@bicycle697]

Thanks for a great video! Question: did you consider replacing the power steering fluid?

[@dial2fast]

If you want to do the service, then just suck up the old fluid and replace it with new fluid. Do that couple of times with the engine running and turning the wheel left and right. But the fix shown in this video has nothing to do with a fluid service.

[@2005CHODO]

You're a genius, I just did it and it worked wonderfully. thank you very much.

[@dial2fast]

Excellent to hear your success. Thanks for sharing!

[@deeshizzlee]

This has been an issue with my 2005 odyssey for a few years now. The pump actually did go out but was replaced but it’s still doing the noise. Now my 2011 civic is doing it REALLY loud so I’m going to replace these o rings on both vehicles and see what happens. Will update if it solves it, thanks so much!!

[@plank5370]

Update

[@IntuitiveJohn]

PS I removed clamp on hose...made it easy to get to.

[@damienainsworth4434]

GREAT VIDEO!! I am no mechanic but sure as heckfire binge-watched KZbin Honda Odyssey power steering pump videos all night and researched enough to feel confident enough that I might actually step up to the plate this time & be a man of action & not reaction, knowing what I do vis a vi all sorts of research came to the conclusion that I could do my scientific-methodology and start by using the keep it simple & very cost-effective & fingers crossed that will get me (and hopefully you as well!), But do Yourself a Big Favor and watch this guy's video right now before you get bummed & call a shop for a stupid (P&L start to finish-new pump-install job!). You'll likely end up saving yourself a lot of cash!! Worst off, you'll be well aware of just how alot of autoshops make a killing swapping out a damn [O- ring] and slap in an unnecessary brand new pump at 40% - heck 140% markup!!) all for your foolishness, sloth or just plain ignorance!! Not trying to offend anyone, but let's be straight up about the miraculously wonderful world of KZbin DIY Videos!! This guy here nails it! My Regards, Damien

[@FernandoOMeza]

Thank you very Marsh good lesson I hear in the same and my Honda of the same problem with the steering wheel

[@pgyore3111]

I was just told by a shop Honda recommends the wheels are off the ground when doing this repair. Does anyone agree?

[@joser0618]

What was the purpose for having off the ground?

[@kentyler966]

P Gyore The wheels are up to make it less strain on the pump. An easier way is to just pull the front wheels up on a couple sheets of newspaper. This makes it very easy to turn the wheel from right to left.

[@IntuitiveJohn]

I've asked three different dealers to address this noise over the last few years...they claimed there was not a problem. I could hear the whine. They are now on my Sh*t list. Known problem Known recall. Known easy fix. So what's your vote ..Are they trying to hide something, unintentionally stupid or willfully ignorant? This made it easy. Didn't think I had to practice self defense on Honda...proved wrong again.

[@greekboydinos]

my man! incredibly helpful and well-paced video. thanks for going through the trouble of making and publishing it

[@georgehuber287]

fixed my 2004 accord today thank you very much!

[@therajuncajun6487]

Thank you sir! Did you also have a leak along with the noise?

[@dial2fast]

No leak

[@mariodiy4517]

Thanks, my 2005 Pilot started making the same sound. And I checked reservoir and sure enough a lot of bubbles. My local Honda had the o-ring for $.95 & $1.35 respectively. Doing the job tomorrow.

[@SinjinCerasani]

You can only prey to buy a used car like this! Great video!

[@beschken]

thanks for the content! is there any difference between the two rings besides the size? is the high pressure one more tough/durable?

[@darenkutchens9765]

Great video. The first bolt was a bitch to get off but luckily I found a short 10mm wrench. Hearing that bolt snap was music to my ears. After that it's cake. I did remove the reservoir for more room which seemed to help a bit. Thanks again

[@dial2fast]

Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@quattj]

Thanks for this info. Diagnosis and solution all in one, without having to replace my power steering pump (which wouldn't have helped!)

[@96royalstar21]

Sweet!!!!!! works fine now and quick also
