Power steering pump gasket source
 
Anyone have a source for a gasket/seal kit for a diesel power steering pump. My one is definitely leaking from the gasket. Pipe seals seem to be OK and the pump is otherwise fine. Have found this on eBay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/264183152917 but it's an alternative to the original. Not done this particular job yet so don't recognise the gasket.

very odd advert as it has this across it
BEWARE OF THIS ONE gasket on the market !!!!!!!! This is same design as failing original one, so why to change for bad design again, which fail over the time again ?

I have just replaced my original weeping gasket, with an uprated gasket.
If anybody wants one, I have a few spare for ~£7 each, including postage.

It is WONDERFUL to finally not have a leaking pump. It's been a long standing problem with my car.

Yes agreed, a bit of a strange listing that one. I found https://powersteeringseals.com/ from another post so will give them a call as I will need to replace the pipe seals/O rings when refitting.

Powersteeringseals.com are American, and will probably ask what a Rover is.

And delivery charges will be obscene from America, and slightly cheaper from Mars !
