A well-known issue on the N54 and early N55 engines with hydraulic power steering is the factory plastic pulley. These pulleys are notorious for either contacting the subframe or simply failing on their own. When that happens, the serpentine belt can be thrown off, leaving you stranded. Worse yet, if the engine is run with the belt off, there’s a high chance of the belt being sucked into the motor through the front crank seal — a failure that can lead to catastrophic engine damage.
Put an end to these problems with the VTT 100% Billet Aluminum Power Steering Pulley.
