Looking for a private mechanic to do some H1 work on my 2002 Wagon.
I've been getting ripped off by Shaw GMC too long.
need the following work done:
- new power steering pump installed (need to find one first)
- Power steering fluid flush
- need new front brakes (also need the parts)
- power brakes fluid flush
Also, I have some "fluid" leaking from my front wheel, maybe the bearing need to be repacked/sealed???
Can anyone help???
Can e-mail me directly:
Ray
maximusinc@shaw.ca
Thanks in advance all.
Cheers,
Ray

power steering pump can be purchased from the dealer, scrap yard--2000+ Savanna 35 series, or parts guy from this vehicle.
When you do the pump, most fluid is already changed, so I do not think a flush is needed.
The brake flush, good and bad, nice to keep fluid fresh and clean, flushing could move dirt into the actuaters and cause problems.
A good and old saying ---If it ain't broken, leave it alone.
The pads are ATD788M purchased at the local parts guy. fronts are easy to do ,where the rear you need a 3rd hand.
The fluid leak... Fix first!!!!!
this is probably the gear hub seals. You will notice air leakage problem as well.
Check in your area for any other H1 owners to help in the fixing the first time.After that, it's just time and money. With a little cursing and cuts.
Also check to find a repair manual /disc for this year. It gives step by step instructions.NOT the Chilton's or other,,, AMG only book.
Good luck, any info required,just ask!!
PS: be patient when working on these, hot heads cause more repair. <img src='
