This worked on my 2003 Honda Pilot which is similar in design. I used your method of fishing the line diagonally across the back of the engine. I was having trouble getting the flare nut started but loosening the four frame bolts was the trick that allowed me to get it in. Axtuo, take care and a big thanks for this great video!

@@AxtuoAx how did you screw the bolt back to the rack? What tool did you use. I’m have a 05 mdx and deciding if I want to do it or pay some one $400. Your thoughts
Yo amigo I have a 1998 Acura RL Premium I just bought. The car is as if it just came out the factory yesterday inside and out. The only two issues I am working on fixing are the odometer display and the infamous power steering whine. For a 98 this vehicle is loaded with all the bells and whistles but the engine bay looks like a modern car, everything is tight and tucked. Long story short my brother I cannot for the life of me find a video specifically replacing the power steering pump on a 98 RL Premium. And your video is the closest looking thing I’ve come across because the pressure line has multiple sensors on it. I don’t want to just start changing parts but theres literally not a drop of oil leaking anywhere. In fact the whine didn’t start till a couple days after buying it. And I don’t want to start taking it apart without knowing the do’s and donts. Real talk though when I seen you don’t the whole pressure line one handed and mad calm it does motivate. Thanks in advance for any input, no rush on a response I’m not gonna do anything until I get the cluster back from the repair guy. Stay up. ✊🏼
❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹 that's love right there, pause! Thanks for the support and the positive energy. If nothing it's leaking, it might have air in the system, or the pump is not performing as designed. Let me know how you doing with that. Stay strong!!!! 🫵😉
You don't have to vacuum anything.....pour the fluid in the reservoir and steer left and right with the engine running til the sound goes away...and that's it
How i did it was i just removwd the subframe completely with the rack on the subframe easier this way, set the subframe on a hydraulic table and unbolt it, go up with the lift and down with the table, change the line and then reinstall
Before you tight any bolt 🔩, make sure the part goes where belong then just put the bolts but don't tight them yet, once everything is in position, tight the bolts. After that, if still doesn't go back in place, you might have the wrong part. Thanks for watching ....hope you like this video... HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!! 🥳
I need some help please, why does my Acura mdx 2001 the belt goes straight down and wraps around the crank its self i don’t understand why every video i watch it’s different
Idaho. I ended up tightening with a pipe wrench crows foot. Started by using a zip tie through the square hole to hand tighten. Then finished with a stubby ratchet with a handle that can adjust its angle to the rachet head. Hard to describe
Very poor design, I'm doing same job without a lift for a family member so of course a freebie. This job definitely sucks all cause of how they designed it. No room, everything is rusted and bolts breaking off. Next time I will pull the engine out lol. Wait..won't be a next time cause I'm not going to work on this vehicle again. I'd rather them scrap the vehicle to be honest. Over 240k miles just don't make sense to keep throwing money at a rusted pile! Thanks for your video 👍
Man oh man I see the trouble you had with it up on a hoist.....I'm gonna be in the driveway on jack stands. Got a quote of $400 maybe I should just let someone else fight with it. Thoughts??

Getting ready to do my 06 mdx. Any tips? Did you do it on the ground?
@@dodo13500 yes it was lifted on jacks. Some advice I'd give you is make sure it goes back in exactly how it came out.
@@hectorpaniagua2597 Thanks!

This is so much easier on the Honda Odyssey. I'm going to attempt this on my new to me 2005 MDX
Let me know how it went

Thanks for the video, I just realized this is not a job I want to take on😂
I feel you
15:24
Can you loosen that frame bolts even tho the car seats on wheels. I will be using a ramp instead of jack stands if possible. Thanks
Did you have to vacuum the system after the repair or can I just fill the reservoir up and turn it on?
You don't have to vacuum anything.....pour the fluid in the reservoir and steer left and right with the engine running til the sound goes away...and that's it
@@AxtuoAx thank you for the response.
Where yall from?
Hello, I’m planning on doing mine. I have a 2005 mdx. Where did you get the part from? Is there a part #.
Didn't I mention the part number in the video???
Do I need to put any Heat tape around the Power Steering Hose?
If you have it and if the line is made of rubber located right next to anything hot, you could.
@@AxtuoAx How easy was it for u to put the connections back into the Racket Pinion.
From 1 to 10....ehhhh 6 ..... you gotta take your time...accept the challenge
How i did it was i just removwd the subframe completely with the rack on the subframe easier this way, set the subframe on a hydraulic table and unbolt it, go up with the lift and down with the table, change the line and then reinstall
Thanks for sharing! 🫵😉
i been trying to reattach my high power steering hose back to the rack and pinon and it wont go back in

Huh???? Really..... look for the engine size and year
What did you use to tighten the hose to the rack and pinion? I definitely can't get a cresent wrench on it!
Serious????
@@AxtuoAx yeah, unless I am going at it wrong. Crazy tight with the firewall and return line there.
