Power Steering pump

So a week ago, I noticed my PAS was a bit noisy

Yesterday there was a puddle of PAS fluid underneath the car, reservoir is low, and the fluid appears to be originating from the pump.

Is my pump goosed or is there some seal kit I might be able to replace? Going to have a closer look at it today!

From doing it the other week best bet is just replace, pretty simple job. I also did the water pump at the same time but probably didn't need to after inspection of the old one.

Yeah I was coming to that conclusion! Having had a look it's leaking fluid from thejoin between the LP and HP sides. Replacement on the cards. Do I need to remove the viscous fan to get it out? Thanks for replying!

Viscous fan off does give you a bit more room and is easier to sort the drive belt

Aand flatdog viscous fan spanners are only £16. Decision made!
