How do you loosen the power steering pump to replace the belt?
5. Reassemble in the reverse order of these instructions, and make sure you’ve sufficiently torqued the bolts and the belts. The hardest part might be sufficiently torquing the power steering belt – you may need to be creative in how to torque the belt without damaging the pump (don’t make a $200 “mistake” by getting careless). It’s major annoyance to have to redo all of that work if it’s not done correctly. Give yourself time to do the job. It may take a novice about an hour to do this job, and an experienced mechanic may take at least 35 minutes. Expect to pay the Toyota dealer at least $80 USD for labor and another $70 USD in parts for this job if you don’t want to do it yourself.
