Used Hyundai Kona Power Steering Pump

The Kona, sold in the UK from 2017 onwards, uses electric power steering (EPS) across all its variants and engine options — there is no hydraulic power steering pump on any version of this car. If your steering is feeling heavy or you are getting warning lights, the fault is most likely in the electric power steering motor and column assembly, the EPS control module, or associated wiring and sensors rather than a pump. You may want to search for a Kona steering rack, EPS motor, or steering column instead. A breaker will be able to advise which component is likely causing your symptoms.

Neither the first-generation Kona (2017–2023) nor the second-generation Kona (2023 onwards) was ever fitted with a hydraulic power steering pump — both use fully electric power steering, so there is no pump to transfer between the two. If you are looking for steering components, the relevant parts to search for are the EPS column motor or the steering rack assembly, and generation matters for those. Confirm the exact part you need with a breaker quoting against your registration.

In this case the engine size makes no difference, because no Hyundai Kona was ever built with a hydraulic power steering pump regardless of which engine is fitted — the 1.0 T-GDi, 1.6 T-GDi, and the hybrid and electric variants all use electric power steering. Engine size is an important fitment factor for many running-gear parts, but it is not relevant here because the part simply does not exist on this model. Focus your search on the EPS motor or steering column assembly instead.

Trim level makes no difference here because no variant of the Hyundai Kona — whether SE, SE Connect, N Line, or Ultimate — was ever equipped with a hydraulic power steering pump. All trims across the Kona range use electric power steering regardless of specification. If you need steering components, search by generation and engine type rather than trim, and confirm the correct part with a breaker using your registration number.

Because the Kona uses electric power steering throughout its range, the components worth searching for are the EPS steering column assembly (which contains the electric assist motor), the steering rack, or the EPS control unit depending on what has been diagnosed as faulty. A power steering pump does not exist on this vehicle, so ordering one would not resolve any steering fault. Describe your symptoms to a breaker and quote your registration so they can identify the correct electrical or mechanical steering component you actually need.
