Just adding to your examples: Volvo quote £152 for the Bosch-made MAP sensor located at the exit of the intercooler (#31355462). You can get it at AutoDoc for ~£40 inc p&p, and although it's not quite the same (because the Bosch-number on the "Volvo" version ends in 294 and the "generic" one ends in 293) it seems to work fine based on the experience of others here. Also Bosch say on their website that 293 is equivalent to #31355462 so all good. |

4 bolts to remove outer pulley, loosen them before taking belt off. Then 3 fixing bolts and 1 bolt holding bracket to pump, on front of pump accessed through holes in pulley. 3 nuts and 1 bolt at rear of pump to remove bracket. It is then possible to remove the pump with much cursing and bashed fingers. Note, the pump will come out with the first pulley attached thankfully as I failed to remove it from the shaft. The bolt on the back runs through a sliding sleeve so if possible knock it back slightly with a hammer to make refitting easier. Refitting is reverse of removal with the added complication that all the brackets have to be built back onto the pump in situ. I found it easier to fit the bolt through the sliding sleeve into the bracket first in order to locate the rear of the pump then by sticking the bolts into a deep 3/8 drive 10mm socket with some putty feed them through pulley and into holes. The first one is the hardest. A lift would make the job easier. The biggest problem I found was lack of access, defiantly need 3/8 drive sockets and torque wrench as just no room for 1/2. Job now done, used 4 litres of CHV202 fluid to flush and fill the system, used Morris oils fluid, £7 a litre. All references I found says it’s compatible with the Volvo fluid. The final insult was the old pump being marked FoMoCo, £644 for a Ford part!!!!! Regards Paul.

Would buying the pump as a Ford part from a Ford dealer be cheaper? And while I'm asking, is the whole power steering rack also a Ford part as I am considering replacing the rack in my car and the cost of a Volvo labelled part is eye watering.

Why don’t you take a look at the steering rack re manufacturers, I have used Shaftec for drive shafts for instance. I was also told by a Volvo parts man that things like steering racks and drive shafts are remanufactured parts anyway, just in a Volvo box. I would be looking for an independent motor factors in your area and see what they can find. Or take a look at Autodoc, it will cost you £8 in post and package and take approx 8 days to reach you but offer considerable savings. For instance, I have replaced front struts and rear shocks with Bilstien B4 units for less than I could buy Monroe gas pressurised from factor. Regards Paul.
