2006 Kia Optima Power Steering Parts

Premium-quality parts for lasting repairs. Engineered to OE design and specifications.

When a Power Steering (PS) Pump goes bad or fails, a driver most evidently will experience an abnormal whining/grinding noise occurring while turning the wheel and will eventually feel loss of steering response & assist. The PS pump is an essential component, as its responsibility is to send hydraulic fluid to the power steering rack and pinion. HL Mando OE power steering pumps are just like the one from the factory. Our pumps come complete with pulley and ready to install. Don’t risk using just any aftermarket PS pump, get the job done right with the original – We Are OE!

Product Features:

• Direct Original Equipment Replacement
• Tested for Quality, Durability, and Reliability
• Manufactured in Korea

CARDONE Remanufactured Power Steering Pumps are engineered to meet or exceed O.E. performance. Original designs are scrutinized for potential improvement, and where applicable, design upgrades are implemented to produce a more durable part than the original. All critical components are tested to ensure proper function. Every unit undergoes a hydraulic efficiency test to ensure reliable, long-lasting performance.

Product Features:

• All critical components (campacs, spool valves, etc.) are triple-tested to ensure product reliability.
• All units are built with 100 percent new O-rings and premium-grade HNBR seals to prevent leaks. HNBR does not break down at high temperatures like conventional seal material.
• Shafts are surfaced to precise specifications to eliminate premature seal wear and extend pump life.
• Units are supplied with 100 percent tested and calibrated pressure relief valves.
• Final pump assembly is computer-tested to measure pressure, bypass, fluid flow, valve operation, steering effort and noise to ensure reliable performance.
• As a remanufactured Original Equipment part, this unit guarantees a perfect vehicle fit.
• Our remanufacturing process is earth-friendly, as it reduces the energy and raw material needed to make a new part by 80 percent.
