A Land Rover Defender power steering pump is a component of the power steering system in a Land Rover Defender that helps to generate hydraulic pressure and assist with easier steering. It is a small pump that is driven by a belt from the engine, and its main function is to deliver pressurized fluid to the power steering gearbox when the driver turns the steering wheel. This pressurized fluid helps to reduce the amount of effort the driver needs to use when turning the wheel, making it easier to steer the vehicle.
Signs of a Faulty Land Rover Defender Power Steering Pump
Some common signs of a faulty power steering pump in a Land Rover Defender include:
- Difficulty in turning the steering wheel
- Unusual noise or whining coming from the power steering pump
- Leaking power steering fluid
- Jerky or rough steering
- Increased steering effort required
- A burning smell coming from the engine compartment

If you experience any of these symptoms, it is recommended that you have your power steering system inspected by a qualified mechanic to diagnose and resolve the issue.
Land Rover Defender Power Steering Pump - Post-Installation Tips
Here are the steps that should be followed after installing a new Land Rover Defender power steering pump:
- Clean the surrounding area: Before starting the installation process, it's essential to clean the area around the power steering pump thoroughly. Use a degreaser and a rag to wipe down any dirt or grime that has accumulated in the area.
- Remove the old power steering pump: Once the area is clean, remove the old power steering pump by following the instructions in the Land Rover Defender service manual. Make sure that you disconnect the battery before removing the pump.
- Install the new power steering pump: After removing the old pump, install the new power steering pump following the instructions in the service manual. Be sure to tighten the bolts securely.
- Fill the power steering fluid: Once the new pump is installed, fill the power steering fluid to the recommended level. Be sure to use the correct type of fluid for your Land Rover Defender model.
- Check for leaks: After filling the fluid, turn on the engine and check for any leaks around the pump. If there are no leaks, test the steering by turning the wheel left and right to ensure that everything is working correctly.
- Test drive: Finally, take your Land Rover Defender for a test drive to ensure that the steering feels smooth and responsive. If there are any issues, address them immediately to avoid further problems.
