Marvick08GT Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Probably damage/obstruction to the rack and pinion. I would start there if you know the pump is good and the belt is tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

06SubLegTx Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Was it a Subaru Pump? Did you replace the O-Ring inside of the Plastic Elbow that is attached to the pump? Those dry up and let air get in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaasaiWarrior Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 if the pump isn't defective, most probably a huge airlock issue 08 Spec B, insta: @08_spec_b, 10 SH Forester insta: @shfozzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
06SubLegTx Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Did you replace the O-Ring? They get old & dry, and they will let air in. Was the new pump a Subaru or Aftermarket pump? What fluid did you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
