- 2001 Ford Explorer Sport
Yes I have a 2001 Ford Explorer Sport 2WD with 117000 miles. The problem Im having is with the power steering. Everything has been working fine up until two days ago. My wife called me and said the steering wheel was shaking when she turned the wheel when stopped and at low speeds. I came home checked the fluid and the fluid was fine. Noticed the serpentine belt needed to be changed so I went ahead and changed it thinking the belt was slipping on the pulley, NOPE. Vibration is still there. I have also noticed when appling the brake and turning the wheel sitting still it will shake badly. I do not see any leaks in the rack and pinion or any of the hoses. Could the pump be goin bad or am I missing something. I have bled it twice with no help. Should I flush it to see if it will do any better? Please help guys! I know I am a newb to the forum but I am not a nube to cars been working on them since I was a kid and I cant figure it out. I really dont want to change the power steering pump unless I absolutely have to.
