Detailed Product Description
The Cardone Power Steering Pump 96-137 is part of the Power Steering Pump brand line, which focuses on delivering dependable replacement pumps for various vehicle applications. This pump features an aluminum housing that ensures strength and efficient heat management during operation. It is designed with a press-on pulley attachment type, although the pulley itself is not included, allowing for compatibility with your existing pulley setup. The pump uses an O-ring type hose port to provide a secure and leak-resistant connection to the power steering hoses.
With a single power steering pump outlet featuring a 16x1.5 thread size, and a hose barb inlet attachment, this pump integrates seamlessly into the hydraulic system of Audi A6 and A6 Quattro models. The remote reservoir design means the reservoir is mounted separately and is not included with this pump, so it is compatible with vehicles that use this configuration.
Common Applications and Issues Addressed
- Restores power assist in steering for Audi A6 and A6 Quattro
- Eliminates whining noises caused by worn or failing pumps
- Resolves hard steering or inconsistent assist during engine rpm changes
- Addresses fluid flow issues due to debris in the flow control valve bore

Installation Notes and Tips
- Ensure the existing pulley is inspected for damage; replacement pulley may be necessary as it is not included
- Use the included sealing kit to prevent leaks during installation
- Verify hose connections match the O-ring and hose barb types for proper fitment
- Follow the instruction sheet carefully to avoid damage to the pump shaft or mounting points
