How to Check Skoda Fabia Steering Pump Compatibility

This information will help you get the correct part the first time you order a replacement.

Match Your Model Year and Generation

The parts are split between the two model generations, which ran from 2000 to 2015. What’s more, you need to ensure you’re buying parts for the right model year.

Check the Engine Code

The engine code for your car is found on the engine block itself and is also shown on your V5C document. Different engines have been fitted to some model years of Fabia, and therefore may require different pumps to be fitted.

Confirm Your Steering System Type

In the older models of the Fabia a hydraulic power steering pump is used, whereas in the newer models an electrically assisted power steering system is used, which does not need a pump at all. So a hydraulic pump would not fit a car that does not need a pump of this kind.

Check Pulley Size and Bracket Fitment

Cross-Reference the Part Number

The part number is usually written on a label or even on the pump itself in the form of a printed code. See the RIDC automotive part number ID information pages for info on recognised automotive part number standards.

Taking a few minutes to ensure correct parts will save you from having to return near-matches.
