Aftermarket power steering pumps problem

[VR38]

Thinking of going for a new aftermarket power steering pump, anyone had problems with them?

yeah first one I had was that noisy it wasn't funny, they replaced it and this one is still noisy but just sounds like a raptor blower - going to get a genuine one when I have some spare coin

Got one off ebay and the stupid thing leaked like a sieve. Fortunately the guy happily refunded all my dosh. Got another aftermarket from Repco and that one has been brilliant. Only been in about 6 months though. Warranties are all generally the same regardless of genuine or aftermarket anyway

Bugger paying that much for a P/S pump.. Just buy a seal kit for a few dollars off ebay,way cheaper and easy to fit.
