Hello all honda experts! There is a rattling noise coming from the from my steering pump. I suspect that the ball bearings are causing it. What will happen if I unscrew the nut (circled) and try to grease the ball bearings? Will the whole thing come apart or is safe for me to attempt this?

Thanks a lot in advance!

If it's rattling, it likely means the bearing is beyond repair. Try and find a local junkyard with a decent pump, then swap them.

yeah they aren't really designed to be re-greased, once they rattle like that its usually too far gone inside, you'll need to replace it with a new pump

If the bearing failed it will usually pour oil all over the place. I would remove the belt first and restart the engine to make sure that is actually causing the noise. Then check the all the pulleys for end play and runout.
