Reinstalling P/S in an S4 SE
Yeah, that's the plan. I searched quickly, but didn't really find exactly what I was looking for, so I decided to make a thread. As well, I'm aware that most people don't like power steering in their FC's, but I'm only a first year driver looking for a comfortable daily driver, and would like the comfort of P/S, at least until I get a little more "confident" on the road. If you want muscular arms, go work out XD
My engine bay has a pretty open gap, so I'm quite sure my car used to have PS. Both the 87.5 and 88 SE models had stock P/S according to IceMark's threads stickied, so I think I should be able to do it. Basically... What will be needed, what are the steps, will it be expensive, should I get a shop to do it instead, etc? |
Did this car have power steering at one point?
Look under the steering column, to the left. The power steering computer should sit right there in a bracket. If it's not there, then you have some work to do and parts to procure, lol... |
or just look where the steering column meets the steering rack are there 3 bolts just screwed in holding nothing??
or better yet send a pic.. cause if you have a manual rack then you have a bit of work ahead of you.. and if you get a shop to do it i'm pretty sure it will get $$$..$$$$$$ :D anyways just poste a pic |
I have a power steering pump and power steering lines I could sell you. i also have a p/s computer. PM me if you want to pick them up from me.

Yeah, if I have a manual rack then I'm just not gonna bother, haha. I'll have to check later today, it's too dark out right now =P I'll probably grab a camera tonight and snap a couple pictures too, because odds are I wouldn't recognize it if I saw it >.<
On an unrelated note, I think I knocked something having to do with my alarm, because it's working differently now lol O.o |
Eh, sorry to double post.. Could anyone show me a pic of exactly what/where I'm looking? I took a quick look yesterday but wasn't sure exactly what I should be looking for... >.<

look under your dash, to the left of the steering column, a little box (some say gold, black, or silver) with a big plug connected to it. if its there, than you had p/s at one time.
