Depends on the engine. If it is a 4 cylinder, it is not a job for the timid. The pump is behind the timing belt. It requires removing the valve cover, the drive and timing belt, the power stering pump and the drive shaft pulley. You'll need an impact wrench for the last item. You also have to ensure that the timing doesn't get changed when you remove the timing belt (however its a good time to change your belts). Overall the job takes about 6-8 hours. Get a good repair manual before starting. You'll not only need the new pump but also a new valve cover gasket. Do not overfill the system or youll end up with an air-blockage.
