Wat is een stuurpomp en hoe werkt het?

Een stuurpomp is onderdeel van het stuurbekrachtigingssysteem en zorgt voor de drukopbouw die nodig is om het sturen te vergemakkelijken. Het pompt hydraulische vloeistof door het systeem om de benodigde kracht te leveren.

Wat zijn de symptomen van een defecte stuurpomp?

Symptomen zijn een piepend of jankend geluid tijdens het sturen, zware besturing, of schuimende/lekkende stuurbekrachtigingsvloeistof.

Hoe weet ik wanneer mijn stuurpomp vervangen moet worden?

Wanneer u bovengenoemde symptomen ervaart of als er een duidelijke lekkage van stuurbekrachtigingsvloeistof is, is het tijd om de stuurpomp te laten controleren of vervangen.

Welke onderhoudstips zijn er om de levensduur van een stuurpomp te verlengen?

Controleer regelmatig het vloeistofniveau en vervang oude of vervuilde stuurbekrachtigingsvloeistof. Voorkom overbelasting door rustig te sturen bij lage snelheden of stilstand.
