Details on the Remanufactured Power Steering Pump Line

The Remanufactured Power Steering Pump line by Maval offers a cost-effective alternative to new pumps by restoring used units to functional condition. This process ensures that the power steering pump meets performance standards while maintaining compatibility with original vehicle systems. The 96438M model is part of this line, providing a balance between quality and value for Scion tC owners.

Product Description and Attributes

This power steering pump is engineered to replace the original unit in Scion tC vehicles. It comes with the pulley included, which simplifies installation by eliminating the need to transfer parts from the old pump.

Proper fluid levels and bleeding of the power steering system are essential to avoid air pockets and ensure smooth operation.
