cainhead Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 On way home tonight and when I got to the bottom of the M1/A406 the steering has gone heavy. No clunking or strange noises, just heavy. Any ideas, fluid maybe. Any thoughts welcome cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Long time Andy, hope you are well Check the crank pulley, if it's sudden loss of PS and theres no drop in PS fluid it'll be a leak or aux drive issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cainhead Posted July 25, 2009 Author Share Posted July 25, 2009 There seems to be plenty fluid, where would the leak be and what would I look for with the aux drive? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cainhead Posted July 25, 2009 Author Share Posted July 25, 2009 Just had a mechanic looking at next doors car and so I asked him if he could take a look. He said it was the washer in the pump, he reckons he could hear it or something. Is this something that also makes the steering heavy? Steering seems a bit lighter today. Im confused:confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
