Well my original started leaking about 3 years ago. So I had it replaced with a remfg one. Then about 3 days later the nipple rotted through on the return line and the fluid leaked out. I kept filling it but the damage was done and that new pump worked but was noisy. Got that fixed and just listen to that pump whine for a few years.
I bought a used replacement of a forum member. So Today I cleaned the screen in the reservoir on the replacement OEM pump and changed it.
It's nice to have a power steering pump that's quiet again.
