Subject:
Removal, installation and replacement of power steering pump
Vehicles:
Vectra-B with X 20 DTL/X 20 DTH engine, Omega-B with X 20 DTH
engine, Sintra with X 22 DTH engine.
Condition:
The removal, installation and replacement of the power
steering pump in the above vehicles was previously only anticipated in
conjunction with the auxiliary aggregates support and was also only available
as such.
Remedy:
The Aftersales department now supplies a modified power
steering pump as an installation kit for removal, installation and replacement,
described as follows, without the auxiliary aggregates bracket.
Note:
These operations will be incorporated in the next edition of
the relevant Service literature and Labour Time Guide.
