look one page before. There is a/c line connected to compressor. I will try. Removing air ducts is five minutes job.
Edit: Just for others
replacing steering pump is quite simple and fast job.
1. remove lh air filter box.
2. remove air duct to the turbo.
3. remove fluid from reservoir as much as possible
4. put something under reservoir to catch some fluid
5. disconnect both tubes from reservoir
6. put small pipe as deep as you can to bigger tube and suck fluid.
7. loose torx t40 bolt under pump - holding high pressure tube, and remove it, you can put 13 flat wrench and hit with hammer to disconnect from pump.
8. remove auxilary belt from pump
9. remove back 10mm bolt with flat wrench and/or ratchet this one is tricky without removing aircon pipe, but in fact quite easy. Just you need small hands.
10. remove front 13mm bolts.
11. voila! pump is out.
12. disconnect feed tube from pump.
13. clean reservoir - filter inside will be really messy. - i did that with unleaded fuel and blowing with air.
do points from 11 to 1 - job done.
as addition you can change fluid - put return tube to 5 liter bottle, close open hole in reservir with rubber plug.
put ask someone to start engine and turn wheels from lock to lock few times an fill all the time fluid to keep level. it will drop really fast. after 4 liters will be out in your bottle stop engine. connect tubes. job done.
last thing. if in some point you will loose power steering, turn engine off, wait few minutes untill fluid in reservoir will be without bubbles. Then repeat continue procedure.
Dont allow to drop fluid on the paint - you will loose all the paint to the bare metal.
