Great video, very detailed! Do you happen to know the exact bolt sizes for the power steering heat shield? My car had the heat shield missing for some reason so I found a replacement. I just need to know the bolt sizes now.

hey bro did your old power steering pump was actually bad? Mine too a w204 1.6L M271 same ticking noise where the power steering is... just renewed the power steering fluid and still hearing the noise but sometime the noise disappear... dont know exact if the steering pump is going bad or not... i'm confused and a power steering pump is very expensive in my country so i wanted some help...

Pump was fine, but the bearing in the pulley went bad causing the loud ticking noise you mentioned. It was just easier to replace the entire pump assembly. Use a mechanics stethoscope to pin point the power steering pump then figure out if you can live with the loud noise.
