I did the P/S hose on my wife's 2007 CRV yesterday (I am in a lot of pain today--everything hurts---I'm 67). I removed the air filter and the air filter box assy to access the screw-in fitting on the far end of the P/S hose so I wouldn't have to lay under the vehicle. The toughest thing to reinstall was the insulating block on the left. That 10 mm bolt is almost impossible to reinstall. Since I spent about 4 hours laying across the engine with a welcome mat laying across the engine. I have everything back where it belongs except I left the 2 short 10mm bolts out on the rubber insulators until the Missus gets home this afternoon. My wife suggested that I just tie strap the 2 rubber insulators instead of reinstalling the bolts back where they belong. I told her, look I worked on cars for a living for over 30 years. I believing in doing the job right. So when she gets home today. I'll get back to reinstalling the 2 very small 10mm bolts that I left, yesterday. It's a bitch getting old. Thanks for posting the video. I don't feel like the Lone Ranger now I know I'm not the only one that keeps his tool box looking like a total wreck.
@@itr0863 Look very closely as they hide those bolts very well. Look all the way around the outside of the box and remove the filter and also check the inside of the box. It's been quite a long time since I had it out but it's better to look thoroughly than to break something. Honda marks up their parts about 500 to 1000%. Don't you think 5.00 for a lug nut is theft? That's why I don't buy ANYTHING from Honda unless you can't get it anywhere else.
@@jumpercable20 i'm having issues disconnecting the sensor. is there a certain way to disconnect it? i'm simply trying to pull on it with my other hand on the old hose.
@@itr0863 It unscrews from the block on the hose. The easiest way is to remove the hose from the car and clamp the block the sensor is screwed into in a vise. Then just unscrew the sensor with a wrench. I'd recommend replacing the little o-ring on the sensor when you screw it back into the new hose.
Thanks Man, I appreciate people like you, I just bought a 2008 CRV LX and the high pressure hose is leaking, this will help me replace the hose and save me a lot of money!!
Love the video, man. Thanks for posting! I also love your wrench organization. We’re obviously cut from the same cloth! 😂 I appreciate you giving the sizes. Let’s me know how long I need to look around the garage before I decide to just buy a new one when I go get the replacement hose! I’ll let my daughter know you helped me finally get around to fixing her car. 😁
If you have trouble replacing the bracket on the passenger side ( 4:50 ), take the passenger side wheel off. There's nearly direct access through the wheel well.
i could not get the 21mm wrench to take the hose off from bottom of the car. After many attempts, remove the air filter box as suggested in comment made it a breeze to take out. Took only one try and easy came off. Air filter box was held down by 10mm on right, 10mm on bottom left, but have to pull up from the upper right rubber (why not another 10mm heck i aint no idea). 21mm wrench (HD $7) on honda original hose, amzn replacement was 19mm. Sensor was also 19mm but it took a thin wrench.
This guy made the job easy , and after watching the video you may save money also by taking it to the right repair personal or you might as well do it by yourself. 👍🏽
At the actual power steering gear, the pressure fitting bolt is a 19 mm. The sensor won’t have to be taken off at a vice if it is rusty and seized. I also recommend spraying the compression bolt and sensor bolt with PB blaster the day before you do the job. You will have to cut the bushings and reinstall them and their brackets into the new PS hose hard line.
After you replace the hose, do you bleed out the system first and then fill it up with fluid or do you fill it up with P/S fluid and then turn the wheel to bleed it out
You need a normal amount of fluid to bleed it, and the fluid level will drop as air comes out. Keep it from sucking air on that front port of the reservoir. The CR-V bleeds pretty easily.
Overall good video BUT… The main reason I watched it is to CLOSELY SEE how you got ur hands up in there to break loose that larger fitting over towards driver side!!! My 2008 is like a maze to get to it
I really, really, tried to take it out without cutting the line. After the last crowfoot slip and smashing my thumb bloody, out came the recip saw with the metal blade. The line cuts through the wheel well in 2 seconds, and then I slipped a socket on. One tap of the trigger on the impact gun and it was out. Less than 5 minutes with the cut method. If you know your line is shot, don't waste your time. Cut it. Save the finesse for installing the new one.
Excellent video, I appreciate that you took the time to get clear camera shots, it makes all the difference in showing where all the bolts are. Thanks

I'm having issues removing the air filter box. i removed the two 10mm bolts and the box wouldn't come loose unless i have to remove other things.

Jumpercable wireless thank you! I knew there was more to unbolt! I’ll check now.

Awesome to see a brother spitting knowledge, great video and very appreciated
Thank you for letting people know to use actual Honda fluids
Makes a huge difference
This video was so helpful! Just bought this assembly to fix my girl’s car and the depth you went into should make this easy! Great vid man!

Very good! Very helpful! Just like me, the neighbours come ask me to do things for their car? & I’m supposed to be retired? All the best. Good luck.!
This is just what I needed! Very informative! Thank you!

Thanks for this video. So, what size is the lower bolt? 19mm?
Appreciate that knowledge on changing the Power Steering hose! Thanks dude!

I gotta replace same hose on 07 h cr v , thanks for making video very much appreciated.👍🏽
Perfect. This is exactly what I need to see. Liked and subscribed as soon as requested. Tight work. Thank you for this.
If you drop one of those screws like the ones at 5:38 the size is M6 12mm

Man this was really helpful...just what i needed...should have a video too on how did u install the new one...awesome job man
Very informative and straight to the point.
Great video. Thanks for this. Good narrative as well.
Great video! How do you bleed the power steering? Does the car have to be on?
Using duralast replacement hose- sensor connection is different. Did you have to modify the sensor at all to fit?
No just make sure you don’t cross thread
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! Legit saved me > $350
Your welcome
Thanks for the info. Question... how did you drain the power steering fluid?
That part.
Big thanks for your time and clear video
Great job man very helpful u make it look like nothing hopefully everything goes the same on my end lol
Thanks for the video. I wish I was younger to tackle my 2008
Can you use the same sensor? Just install it on the new line hose
Yes u can
Thanks for information ,I have a 2007 CRV and I got to do the same job looks the same for me.
Where can I find the bolts? I'm missing one.
What’s the ft. Pounds of torque when putting new high pressure line nut where it goes into the rack ?
What size wrench did u use to remove again?
Is a 2008 honda civic 1.8 L power steering lines the same to remove?
Honda dealer quoted $400 to fix this, think I’ll DIY it now!
Hey man whats the smaller pipe just below the high pressure hose called? because my one is leaking and I need to replace it
Say bro thanks for the information. Does the car have to be running to bleed it?
Yes, it does. Idling is best; if foam appears in the reservoir, let it settle before continuing.
U in Orlando?
Hi! How do you know which pump to buy? Also was this because it was leaking?
Also is a 2008 different, not sure why mine looks different 🤔
Does a regular bleeding of the air out when your done work ok? Like turning the wheel left then right several times ?
5 months later, here's a reply for you. Yes. Its self-bleeding, just make sure to top the reservoir up to the max line.
Thank you for the video it helped.
Great video! Well done, good shots
Extremely helpful

Great simple video love it
Thanks. Very helpful info.
Can you tell me how much replacement fluid is needed for my 2009 CRV POWER STEERING SYSTEM ?
Thanks.
Takes 3 bottles (1qt) of honda steering fluid to refill the whole empty system, but replacing hose won't spill it all.
Nice job, nice tools and nice man. Good job thanks.
Overall good video BUT… The main reason I watched it is to CLOSELY SEE how you got ur hands up in there to break loose that larger fitting over towards driver side!!! My 2008 is like a maze to get to it
Thank you!
Thank you .
Pretty good vid there man, excellent job.
Great job
Good vid my friend
How much do you charger ?? I really needa get my power steering fixed !!😭 please lmk

Thank you for your time.
Thank you
U in Florida?
Good video ty
Thank you. Very informative video.
Very useful. Thanks
Excellent info U rock!
I gotta follow you around while you can't find your tools?
What size wrench did you use for the connection at the rack?
He used a 21 mm
I really, really, tried to take it out without cutting the line. After the last crowfoot slip and smashing my thumb bloody, out came the recip saw with the metal blade.

great video. thanks a lot. where did you buy that hose
The bag the hose came in said Duralast on it, so he bought it at Autozone.
Tools needs to be organized 🙂!
Great video though and thanks for sharing 👍!
now install it
Big lie take the filter box don't go underneath easy 40 minutes
Bro I feel so sorry for your Jordan’s . To much mechanic abuse On them 😂
Organize that tool box. A few organizers will save you hours of searching....
what you turn 30 times left and right ? your description sucks...
Great video thank you.
