Detailed Description

This Maval power steering pump, part number 96361MN, is built for vehicles that require a remote reservoir power steering setup. It is compatible with 2006-2011 Honda Element and 2002, 2005-2006 Honda CR-V applications listed in the fitment data. For Honda CR-V models, the notes specify that new O-rings are included with the pump and must be used on both the pressure and return lines, and that the remote reservoir screen should be inspected and cleaned to maintain proper flow and pressure.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 21-5425) for the same application. The 96361MN is also referenced against OE number 56110-PNB-A01. Use this pump when replacing a worn or leaking steering pump on a Honda CR-V or Honda Element with the matching remote reservoir configuration.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Loss of power steering assist
• Steering pump noise from wear or internal damage
• Fluid leakage at the pump connections
• Hard steering caused by pump performance decline
• Pressure or return line sealing issues on remote reservoir systems

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify the vehicle uses a remote reservoir power steering system before installation.
• Use the included new O-rings on both the pressure and return lines for the Honda CR-V applications listed.
• Inspect and clean the remote reservoir screen before putting the system back into service.
• Confirm the pulley is transferred or sourced separately, since it is not included.
• Check hose and threaded connections for proper seating and leak-free operation after installation.
