New approach to PT Cruiser power steering cooler repair
I previously posted a problem in getting a power steerin cooler
without an upgrade. There has to be OE coolers for a 2001 PT Cruiser somewhere that I can purchase and have installed. I see no reason to pay hundreds of additional dollars for an upgrade. I only have 48K on the car. If I could get another 46K without the upgrade I'd be satisfied. |

And we have previously answered your reply. The only upgrade was adding the
hoses (return) to the cooler, If someone is telling you that there is more labor to install this unit you need to find another person to work on your vehicle.

Im just wondering if the reservoir and Pressure hose are leaking along with the cooler. Is that is how the price got so high or are they not sure and just selling you everything? Glenn |

Pete I just ran your vin number and yes you are correct they did supersede
the cooler to a new number just recently and it does require installing a new hose and resorvoir. It does not give us the info on why it was changed. The part numbers are. 5272867ad hose 5272351aa resorvoir 5272354ae cooler Glenn -- Message posted using http://www.talkaboutautos.com/group/...kers.chrysler/ More information at http://www.talkaboutautos.com/faq.html |
