little ed Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 Last week i had a full tonneau fitted to the westie as i had the money to get it done This was probably be the last thing i would do to it before christmas. As im driving home from work, on the day i was picking my westie up, the power steering goes on my tin top!!!!!! I take it into the garage for the to have a look, mean while ive got my westie back looking good with a new tonneau. The garage ring and tell me that the pump has shot it. Its going to cost £300 for a new pump and that before labour charges Why when you have some money to do something that you want, you then spent money on something you don't want!!!! Thats me staying in until payday Quote

steve_m Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 Check eBay for a power steering pump, they're very easy to fit. Most pumps are available second hand for £50ish. Quote
