Hyundai i20 Power Steering Pump Replacement Parts

The vast majority of Hyundai i20 models sold in the UK use Electric Power Steering (EPS), which has no hydraulic pump at all — this applies across both the first generation (2008–2014) and second generation (2015–2020). If your i20 has lost power steering assistance, the fault is most likely in the electric motor, steering column sensor, or associated wiring rather than any pump. There is no hydraulic power steering pump to replace on this model, so if a seller is listing one specifically for the i20, treat that with caution.

Because the i20 uses EPS, you should be looking at the electric power steering motor and rack assembly, the steering angle sensor, or the EPS control module rather than a hydraulic pump. A fault code reader will often point you toward the correct component, and a good breaker can supply a complete EPS rack or just the column motor depending on which part has failed. Confirm the exact failed component with a diagnostic check before ordering anything.

Neither the first-generation i20 (2008–2014) nor the second-generation i20 (2015–2020) was fitted with a hydraulic power steering pump, so there is no pump to transfer between them. Both generations used electric power steering throughout their UK production runs. If you need steering components, you should be searching for EPS rack units or column assemblies matched to your specific generation and engine variant instead.

Trim level does not influence the type of power steering system fitted — all UK i20 trims including S, SE, SE Nav, and Premium ran the same EPS setup with no hydraulic pump involved. What can vary between trim levels is specification details like steering wheel controls or sport steering wheel feel, but the underlying EPS hardware is shared. When sourcing a used EPS rack or motor, match the generation and engine rather than the trim name.

It is highly unlikely to be a genuine i20 hydraulic pump, as the i20 has used electric power steering throughout its production life in the UK with no hydraulic system fitted to any standard variant. The listing may be mislabelled, may relate to a completely different model, or could be a misidentified EPS component. Contact the breaker directly, quote your registration, and ask them to confirm exactly what the part is and where it was removed from before spending any money.
