I shopped rebuilt power steering pumps all over the place - VW dealerships, List Vendors, RockAuto, AutohausAZ, and others - way expensive!! Finally bought a rebuilt from NAPA - $170 - no exchange, lifetime warranty. If it breaks - take it back and get another. Hard to beat that kind of warranty. It pays to shop around for sure!
