R500 power steering proportioning valve leak ??? O rings
Hi, just got my new ride.....r500 from 2006 . it has a leak on the proportioning valve ( power steering ) and, before getting a new valve for lots off dollars, i woul like to try changing the o rings.......can someone point me where i can get them, seems i only can get the compleete valve.....thanks
I think those are butyl rubber, for chemical resistance.
You could take it to NAPA and have them try to match
(putting on my flame-retardant suit here..!)
, or if you have a Harbor Freight near you
, buy an assortment of metric O-rings. About $10 for 50, various sizes.
Really, matching is just material suitability, cross-section, and diameter of the ring.
Good luck!

Were you able to replace the PSP valve? Currently mine started to have avery hard sterring at low speed and during the turn, it almost freez while on low speed like taking a turn on my driveway. I am suspecting that I have a failed PSP valve.
