The Skoda Fabia is produced in a number of different versions and part numbers for the steering pump used over the period of 2000-2015 will vary.
Check the Stamp on the Old Pump
The best part number to compare is the OEM part number stamp on the pump body itself – a metal tag or cast into the body of the pump. Take a photo of this before you remove the part, and you can refer to this when comparing supplier part numbers.
Match the Engine Code
The engine code (eg ABF) as shown on a sticker in the engine bay or on your service documents will confirm which pump was originally fitted to your Skoda. Some engine types of the same capacity will use different pumps to achieve different outputs.
Check the Build Date, Not Just the Year
When searching for a replacement Skoda Fabia Steering Pump, bear in mind that within a given model year there can be changes in pump fitment at some stage in production. These changes can be detected from the production date on the plate found inside the driver’s door frame.
Confirm Port Configuration
Some models have low-pressure and high-pressure connections set up differently, so check for the correct configuration on any replacement pump before buying.
Use the VIN to Cross-Reference
This can be cross-referenced against your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). These are listed by VIN, enabling you to confirm the correct part for your model before ordering.
