Interplay of Pomeranchuk instability (spontaneous symmetry breaking of the Fermi surface) and d-wave superconductivity is studied for the repulsive Hubbard model on the square lattice with the dynamical mean field theory combined with the fluctuation exchange approximation (FLEX+DMFT). We show that the four-fold symmetric Fermi surface becomes unstable against a spontaneous distortion into two-fold near the van Hove filling, where the symmetry of superconductivity coexisting with the Pomeranchuk distorted Fermi surface is modified from the d-wave pairing to (d+s)-wave. By systematically shifting the position of van Hove filling with varied second- and third-neighbor hoppings, we find that the transition temperature $T_{rm c}^{rm PI}$ of Pomeranchuk instability is more sensitively affected by the position of van Hove filling than the superconducting $T_{rm c}^{rm SC}$. This implies that the filling region for strong Pomeranchuk instability and that for strong superconducting fluctuations can be separated, and Pomeranchuk instability can appear even if the peak of $T_c^{rm PI}$ is lower than the peak of $T_c^{rm SC}$. An interesting observation is that the Fermi surface distortion can enhance the superconducting $T_{rm c}^{rm SC}$ in the overdoped regime, which is explained with a perturbation picture for small distortions.
