Replace the power steering fluid reservoir and the O ring at the same time you do the V8's pump - the reservoir has an internal filter that clogs. We had the local stealer do the pump on our V8 after waiting 2 months for a booking, and they didn't bother changing the reservoir.... So it was still noisy after the car left the shop after 3 days. Later it went to a real workshop to get the job done properly (reservoir replacement) and will never go back to the stealer again.

As far as the p/n 36000790 pump goes as requested by the OP, Skandix seems to be a good bet for a brand new genuine pump. Even with the horrible shipping charges, it still works out many hundreds of AUD less than the price Ramrod quoted, and no exchange is necessary.

Thanks . I guess it would be practical to replace water pump and belt at the same time or does that make a relatively simple job too complicated?

I'm no mechanic but we did our S80D5 w/p and accessory belt when we had the EGR cleaned out at 80,000? kilometres.

I'm guessing the as alternator will need done soon, I think at 120kK now.

Some electronic stuff may fail soon.

Steering lock module, fan control module (replace complete fan unit with module on it) also check windscreen by pushing it out from inside to see if it is sealed still as they fail and water getts into the modules under dash basically writing the car off.
