Yeah it's a job very frustrating really tight clearances. There's no other videos of the 07 and newer v6 anywhere..take off the belt then belt tensioner first then 3 12mm bolts you take out behind the pulley go through the pulley holes there's two that are bigger then the other two go through one of the bigger ones then there's two 12mm bolts on the back of the pump housing going through a bracket take em out then take off both hoses high pressure and low then pull the pump housing directly down may need to pry it down with a big screw driver and maneuver it out. Best advice I can give while freshly doing it O-ring was bad inside the fill hose to pump housing was bad on this one leaked like crazy. Good luck..
I've got a 2008 3.5 that's leaking around the pump really bad...reservoir empty in a day....does the pump itself leak or do you think it's a hose/sensor on the high pressure side? Auugghhhh I'm dreading replacing this. Have done tensioner 3x alternator 2x and AC compressor along with cv shaft and hub assembly.
This job was WAY easier than I was expecting after reading the comments on a few videos!!! 😂
