How to replace Power Steering Hose in 2005 Honda Odyssey. Tips, Prep and detail.

- Power Steering Hose replacement is needed when the high pressure hose leaks, causing air to be sucked into the hose during steering wheel turns, and also causing fluid to be pushed out through a small hole in the hose. This video guides viewers through the whole replacement process. If you have never done this job before, you can now, and save $300. Gotta give me props for tossing in the Clint Eastwood quote...
Thank you for showing this method! This is NOT a CAR! This is a van!
You did a fantastic job patiently explaining everything. It is aggravating enough to get into tight spaces as you sit there wondering how on earth did someone tighten a nut in a tiny hole and then trying to film and explain everything through the aggravation commands supreme patience. Hats off to you.
Thank you for your kind words. I figure as long as it helps at least one person, it was worth it. Others post videos that i've used as well, so goid things go around.
I appreciate your patience and thoroughness of the process.
Thank you, after several months it works great, no leaks and easy steering!
Thank you. Very nicely detailed and filmed.
Glad you liked it! Thank you for watching!
Great video with clear, easy to follow directions; much appreciated. I replaced mine yesterday on our 2009 Odyssey and found it to be a pretty simple task overall. From my experience, I would encourage folks to make it really easy on themselves and just cut the line by the flare nut to save time and aggravation, then use a 9/16 or 14mm deep well socket to remove the nut. Easy peasy. Overall a pretty simple job despite some of the bolts underneath being in tight spaces restricting your ability to get your hands and tools in/around. Anyone with basic mechanical ability combined with watching this video and some patience can replace this hose and save themselves a lot of money. Thanks again 👏👏
Thank you and agree on cutting the line. Those tight spaces make it difficult to get leverage!
Clint Eastwood actually said that in “gran Torino” but I get it. Good video this is the fifth one I’ve watched on you tube to find some tips, and finally someone with guts to cut the old line off. Why struggle with an old part to just slow down the job. Another tip I came across that seems helpful is removing the oxygen sensor bracket out of the way, so you can feed the line in much easier.
Thank you for additional tip! Every bit helps! Loved Eastwood in Mule too..that guy definitely has power steering!!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEO AND SHOWING US DETAILS INCLUDING HOW TO REMOVE THE SENDIR
Tip: it’d be easier to cut that difficult last connector with a plumbers pipe cutter sold @
home hardware $5🇨🇦
*Mine is 2007 and the steering hose pressure line is identical to yours
P.s that hose including the metal part can become an essential future tool
I made my own manual transmission fluid feeder with my old car’s left over hose and a left over well water attachment so I can feed the trans. fluid while standing up in no time 4mnts max instead of feeding it with a fluid syringe from under the car which takes at least 15 minutes :)
Thank you for your ideas, and I'm glad it helped!!
Rather than a normal flare nut wrench, use a crows foot flare nut wrench. That way you can add extensions until you have room to use a ratchet handle. Torque on the flare nut is 27 lbf•ft.
You genius ,i can see how that should work easy peasy I'm gonna try that on my Ridgeline it's the exact same setup
Thank you for the suggestion, the space is tight, will try next time.
@@westvalley411 I tried tightening the flare nut from the bottom using a crow's foot flare wrench and socket extension and got all but 2.5 threads into the rack. I was curious as to how many remaining threads you had on your flare nut end into your rack?? I know each aftermarket part is different, but still curious. Mine is tight but I don't know how tight so I am planning on coming in from the top with the flare nut crow's foot and torque ratchet with extension to get it to 27 ft. lbs. LMK about your thread count if you can. Thanks!
@@leehooliganGreat question.. had to go to the garage to check as it has been a while. Yes had 2 rows of threads showing. Now that I think about it, I recall questioning the connection, but I made sure the angle was straight on, and so far no leaks, works fine. Thank you.
Really appreciate your detailed presentation. I've been procrastinating thinking I couldn't do this myself. You convinced me that I can. Thanks for your help.
Thank you and good luck, let me know how it turns out. Ours is running great, no leaks and turns like an F1 car!
Excellent. It’s clear to understand the procedure. Thank u God bless you man.
Wow. Thank you so much for doing this video. Wasn’t sure if I want to tackle the pressure hose on my ‘07 Pilot but you showed how easy it is. Definitely worth the time when you consider the savings from a dealership. Thanks again.
Thank you and good luck, even if you have to buy tools, you have them forever and still save on the cost of installation.
Thank you for showing this method!
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching!
Thanks for the video! Just goes to show you don’t need a treasury of tools to perform a job.
Amen! Still love the comment by Clint Eastwood in Gran Torino: Kid, you don't buy all your tools in one day,, you get them one at a time. (Or something close to it)
Correction...he said: Don't be a bone head, you collect all these tools over 50 years...start with these 3"
Thanks for this! saved me some trouble for sure!!
Talks about procrastinating your taxes, then says ok let’s get this nut off... so, you have to remove the pressure sensor... 😂 I love it.
This was a great video, thank you for taking the time to explain everything in great detail! Very helpful!
Great video!!! Very detailed!! Thank you.I have to do this on my 2005 pilot
Thank you and good luck. My odyssey is steering great, no noise or leaks!
Good idea asking the local dealer to match the on-line price.
yes, all they can do is say "no" Might as well ask!
Thanks man! Great video. Tackling this tomorrow for a friend. No need to bleed the system?
Thank you and Good luck! No bleeding needed.
Do you need to evacuate the reservoir since the pump isn't pumping, or will gravity pull the fluid through the pump?
Good question. I removed the remainder of the fluid so it did not flow into the pump and and ooze out. The answer is: I'm not sure but I drained it anyway just in case!
I just took the fitting off in about 3 minutes. No lie. Should have filmed it. From the top of the engine, I worked a dremel with a cut off down there, zip. Then, a deep well 14 mm, 6 pt socket on my right angle air wrench zipped it right out.
Nice work. Thank you and glad you saved some time!
@@westvalley411 the biggest problem I had was routing the new line into place and getting the nut started. I love my Hondas though!
@@jaredb6934Agree, you have to muscle to align it and don't cross thread the nut....keeping it flush. Next time we all can do it eadiwr...experience count :)
I used a pair of tube cutters, very quick.
Great idea! Git R Done!
great video, has the same with mine 05
What size flare nut wrench did you use. 9/16 or 14 mm pretty much the same.
Yes 14mm. Foreign makes all use metric scale. Flare nut has 6 points grip, so preferable to use.
3rd video I’ve watched and no one films when putting the flare end fitting back on. It seems like it’s constantly cross threading and too much force required to tighten it to the box. This is the second new hose I’ve tried to put on.
Sorry about that. Do you have a Honda original replacement part? You have to press the lip of the metal tub end to the box and make sure the drives flush. Frustrating I know, but easy does it not a lot of slack but make sure you do not tighten the hose clamps too soon.
Thanks for the reply. I ended up retapping the steering rack with a 14 x 1.5 and after that... it was the easiest repair I’ve done lately.
@@theoffice1842 way to go!! Glad it workwd!!
@@theoffice1842 hey I'm having the same problem. can't seem to tighten it enough (so it's leaking) from the flare I think. Not sure if I cross threaded it or just need to tighten it more. Could you explain what retapping is and what you used to solve this? thanks!
Great video thanks man
That was a helpful video. Thanks a lot man
what size to remove the bracket
Is this exact same operation on a 2004 Honda Odyssey?
Nicely detailed.
Thank you, I stand on the shoulders of giants (as they say) lot of good you tubers before me who were here to help.
Why not just loosen the flare nut from above with the 2 wrench method? Plenty of space to work the wrench - obviously since you were able to work the hack saw from up there.
Good idea. I tried that, using a few methods and different tools. Even with a tight fitting wrench, there seems to be sufficient gap in the space between the nut and wrench that the nut would not turn without more area in the engine compartment to move the tools and loosen. I wonder what the shop does with air tools?
@@westvalley411 Yeah. I just did this on Monday night on my sister's van. Agreed - there's enough slop not to be able to get it from the top. We went underneath with a ratchet (cut the hard line) and a cheater bar. Once it broke loose it was quite easy to remove. An air ratchet or small impact wrench might have helped. A lift would have helped, too :)
Pointing out how long videos get from monotonous motions and actions? Wow. 😮. All the better was actually showing ppl where n how in real time.
GRAN TORINO?
You are correct on all points! You got the movie right! I should have sped up video speed to shorten some segments. I've been doing that the past several videos.
