No power steering - Potential new rack??
You need vcd's. Start/stop maybe working because the battery has enough charge in it at the moment.

No power steering - Potential new rack??
Without re-coding, the system will assume it still has the old battery and keep the same charging characteristics. It should learn over time that there is a new battery, but in the meantime who knows what faults that could throw up. It's just one thing less to worry about.

Make sure they haven't forgotten to re-code the new battery.

Maintenance list to keep car long time
If it ain't broke don't fix it. You don't usually get a sudden, total failure of the pump. You'll probably start to notice a slight water loss or the heating not working properly. Then's the time to investigate. No guarantee that if you replace the pump it won't fail in a short time. One think you should check is if the water expansion tank has the wording "mit silikat" stamped on it. If it has, the silica bag inside the tank is prone to rupture and the contents will block your heater matrix which would need repacing. Many people have removed the bag and then change the water every 4 or 5 years. Quite a few threads on this subject.
