Nissan Juke Power Steering Pump Replacement Parts

Most Nissan Jukes do not have a hydraulic power steering pump at all — the Juke uses electric power steering (EPS) across the vast majority of its production run, meaning there is no hydraulic pump to replace. If your steering is heavy or unresponsive, the fault is more likely to lie with the electric power steering motor, the steering rack itself, or the EPS control module. A breaker or auto-electrician would be the right starting point to diagnose which of those components needs attention.

It is very unlikely to be correct for a standard Juke, as the model uses an electric power steering system rather than a hydraulic one, so no hydraulic pump was fitted from the factory. Listings for a 'power steering pump' on a Juke may be mislabelled parts, parts from a different vehicle, or occasionally the electric power steering motor/assembly being described with the wrong name. Check the part number and description carefully with the seller before buying, and confirm against your registration with the breaker.

Because the Juke relies on electric power steering, the components worth investigating are the EPS motor (which is mounted on or near the steering column or rack), the steering rack assembly, and the EPS control unit. A diagnostic scan will usually point to which part has failed, and a breaker can then supply the correct used component matched to your generation of Juke — the first-generation Juke ran from 2010 to 2019, and the second-generation from 2019 onwards, and these use different steering assemblies. Always confirm the exact part needed against your registration before ordering.

Yes, generation matters significantly — the first-generation Juke (2010–2019) and the second-generation Juke (2019 onwards) are built on different platforms and use different steering column and rack assemblies, so parts are not interchangeable between them. Within the first generation there was also a facelift around 2014 which may have introduced differences, so confirm with the breaker whether a part from a pre-facelift car suits your post-facelift car or vice versa. Always confirm fitment against your registration with the breaker before purchasing any used steering component.

No, trim level does not affect the steering system fitted to the Juke — the difference between grades like Visia, Acenta, N-Connecta, and Tekna is largely cosmetic and equipment-based rather than mechanical. The steering assembly is determined by the generation and engine variant, not the trim. You may find cosmetic differences between donor cars (interior colour, alloy wheel style, and so on), but these have no bearing on steering component compatibility.

Engine variant and drivetrain layout can influence the specific steering rack or EPS motor fitted, so it is worth checking whether a donor car matches your engine as well as your generation. The Juke was offered with various petrol and diesel engines as well as optional four-wheel drive on some variants, and breakers will want to match these details to ensure the correct assembly. Confirm the donor vehicle's engine code and drivetrain against your own registration with the breaker before agreeing a purchase.
