Going to replace power steering pump (any tips on that repair)?

Any advice on what other maintenence I should do while the seat frame is off greatly appreciated.

It is a new vehicle to me, and I don't have any service history...

I have downloaded all the manuals and they will be a great help

Thanks

wow, getting the power steering pump out was a lot easier than I anticipated. not easy, but not bad at all.

i guess I'm just going to degrease everything in the area (especially the turbo) and replace belts.

if there is anything else on that side if the engine I should be looking at let me know!

That sounds about right, there's not a lot that needs maintenance on that side.

Check for oil leaks around the turbo rubber hoses, clean and maybe tighten the clips a bit if they're leaking, set alternator belt tension (easier while that cover is off).
