A buyer's guide to used Mercedes-Benz CLA power steering pump

No two power steering pumps are quite the same across different vehicles, so getting the specifics right matters when you buy used, second hand or a replacement. Answer a few quick questions below and breakers will only quote if they have the exact matching part in stock:

Fitment questions

Does the Mercedes-Benz CLA actually have a power steering pump?

No — the Mercedes-Benz CLA (both the first-generation C117, 2013–2019, and the second-generation C118, 2019 onwards) uses electric power steering (EPS) as standard across all variants and engine options, meaning there is no hydraulic power steering pump fitted to any CLA at all. If your steering is heavy or unresponsive, the fault is more likely to lie with the electric power steering motor, the steering column, the EPS control unit, or associated sensors. We'd suggest searching for those parts instead, or speaking to a breaker with your registration to diagnose exactly which component needs replacing.

Could my CLA have a power steering pump if it has a bigger engine like the CLA 250 or CLA 45 AMG?

No — engine size makes no difference here, because the CLA's electric power steering system is used across the entire range, including the CLA 180, CLA 200, CLA 220, CLA 250, and even the high-performance CLA 45 AMG. None of these variants were ever fitted with a hydraulic pump. If you're experiencing steering problems on a CLA 45 AMG or CLA 250, the fault will be electrical or mechanical within the EPS system rather than a failed hydraulic pump.

I've been quoted a power steering pump for my CLA — is that right?

It's very unlikely to be correct, as the CLA has never been fitted with a hydraulic power steering pump in any of its forms. It's possible there has been a misdiagnosis or a mix-up with another Mercedes-Benz model that does use hydraulic power steering, such as older C-Class or E-Class variants. We'd recommend going back to whoever advised the pump and asking them to confirm the specific component against your registration plate before purchasing anything.

Does trim level affect which power steering parts I need for my CLA — for example, Sport versus AMG Line?

Since the CLA has no hydraulic power steering pump regardless of trim level, trim names such as Sport, AMG Line, or AMG Line Premium have no bearing on this. If you do need a steering-related component, trim level is unlikely to affect fitment for most EPS parts either, but you should always confirm the exact part number with a breaker using your full registration to be certain.

What should I actually be searching for if my CLA's power steering feels faulty?

Depending on your symptoms, the parts most likely to be relevant are the electric power steering motor (sometimes called the EPS motor or column assist motor), the steering rack assembly, the EPS control module, or the steering angle sensor. A breaker will be able to look up the correct part against your registration, and it's worth having any fault codes read first as EPS faults are usually logged and can point to the specific failed component.
