- In this video, I show how I found the power steering fluid leak and how I removed the damaged hose and I installed an other hose assembly. I made many illustrations lo help to locate the close up views. I also describe the vacuum bleeding procedure I used to add fluid and remove the air bubbles from the system.
You always do the best videos , with diagrams simply the best.
Great vids, very helpful! Thank you for the extra work. You have helped me a few times with Patriot videos.
Thanks for good information.
Réparation réussie pour moi. Je n'aurais pas pu la faire sans ce vidéo très détaillé et super bien monté. Merci beaucoup!
Merci !
I can’t seem to get my power steering reservoir to stop bubbling and my pump makes a horrible noise after changing my steering rack and pinion. I am stumped. I did a full lock to lock over 50 times and have used a vacuum. Somebody told me you were the guy who could help. I could really use your help. Much appreciated 🙏
Hi, thanks for so many great, informative videos! I have a 2011 Patriot North Edition and it began making a loud noise every time I turned my steering wheel. I brought it to the dealership and they replaced the steering fluid lines/hoses because they said they were leaking. It cost me $899 but the problem seemed to be fixed. It has only been a few months and suddenly the same noise has returned. I don't see any fluid leaks, so before I complain to the dealership that did the repair, I'd like to have an idea of what the problem could be. Is it possible that they didn't bleed the air bubbles from the system? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Cathy from Laval, Quebec
First, check the power steering fluid level in the reservoir ( ref.: 4:55).
If the level is too low, it means that the system is loosing some fluid from one of the fluid lines or from the rack and pinion fluid seals, so air pockets can be introduced in the system via the fluid reservoir..
In this case, you should use your phone to take a good picture or film the low level of the fluid to prove to the repair shop that it is still leaking from somewhere even if you can not see it.
But, if the level is between min and max, the problem should be caused by a defective power steering pump.
@@mtlcarguy Thanks for the quick response! I will do that as soon as possible and let you know what I find. I have one more question. I am planning on doing an oil change, changing the spark plugs and cleaning the fuel injectors myself but I'm not sure what tools to buy. I'm a bit confused about the difference between a socket wrench and a ratchet. What tools should I be buying considering I'm on a tight budget? Thanks, Cat

For oil change, look at: www.autozone.com/diy/motor-oil/tools-to-change-oil
Note: For hazardous products like oil, the city of Laval collects used oil and oil filters.
For beginners tools, look at: www.bestcolleges.com/trades/auto-mechanic/must-have-tools/
To identify the tools, google the name of the tool and look at the picture in ''Images'' menu.
what size bolts? what size wrench do you need?
I remember that the tube nuts were18mm. The metric bolts were common and they are standard part of any good tool kit so I did not write their sizes.
@@mtlcarguy thank you, you helped me, and is there anything to replace the last vacuum pump operation? thank you

This is the way I did it with older cars.
