seems my power steering pump is leaking

Had it looked at, and the verdict is that the leak is between the engine and pump

Where will i be able to get a good second hand or recon pump in order to solve this issue

Thanks

There is an "O" ring seal between the power steering pump and the aluminium timing case cover to which it is bolted. Order a new one and simply replace.

I had a slight leak between the reservoir on-top the pump and the pump body, but a R3.90 "O" ring solved that problem for me.

Thanks

The mechanic said that he did replace the "O" ring, but still leaking

Recommended to replace the pump

Had it checked out yesterday...pump is not leaking, might be a pipe

But then at the last moment the guy turns around and says it must be from the engine, engine oil stays at its level. Only power steeing that needs top up
