Power steering pump fell off
I was driving home from work and open window when I was nearly home. Hear a noise front front of car. First thought was wheel bearing, then brakes, then suspension. Got home 100yrd from hearing this noise.looked at wheen couldn't see anything open bonnet couldn't see anything wrong looked again my power steering pump was on my engine mount just dangling there.

Re: Power steering pump fell off
Corsa has electric power steering, so no pump
More likely be the alternator, still a problem because the bolts could be broken or it could just be a matter of bolting it back on

If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway

Re: Power steering pump fell off
If your lucky, its unlikely that the bolts worked there way loose unless it wasn't fitted right to begin with

Reservoir is the the RIGTH of my engine, and the pump is bolted to the side of the engine. This is of google but this what is on mine.

Re: Power steering pump fell off
Some had the proper pas think it was the the Sri -gsi and sport along with the diesel a lot of the lesser models had the eps system fitted
But Kieran is right it's mounted at the side near the rad an a mounting plate and bracket
