Is the VR6 Power steering pump same on LHD and RHD cars ?

I recon it's the same for both Left hand drive and right hand drive?.

 

However - when I pulled one of a Passat VR6 - I noticed there was differences from the one I have on the Corrado - the connections went in opposite directions IIRC.

 

Are all Corrado VR6 pumps the same ?.

 

Also anyone know the price of these pumps from VW in the UK ?.

Looking on vag-cat there's two part numbers listed for the pump:

 

6N0145157

 

and

 

6N0145157 X

 

And partsbase show a third:

 

535145157

 

Don't know if that helps.

I think the X just means it's an exchange part, in that you need to hand in the old one.

Might be - I pulled the one I have in spare of my older Passat VR6 - and that differs from the Corrado IIRC the pipes go in oposite directions, or something like that.......

Thanks for the PM (didn't see it before today) - a bit hard to see the lower connection - I would presume it differs from this one:

 

 

This is the one out of my 1991 Passat VR6 - I think my Corrado have the lower pipe bending the other way around...........

good question will check

 

just as its attached to engine bit heavy to lift!

Tje lhd has the outlet like the one on rhd cars but seems to no have the outlet pipe for some reason. On the pic I send the outlet position is where the red is

Ok,

 

anyone got any idea if this connection can be turned the other way ? (unscrew it somehow or is it part of pump ?)
