Power steering issues - noisy on tickover only
Posted: Thu Dec 06, 2018 12:48 pm
I've searched through the forum for some answers but I thought I might ask the community for their thoughts.
So I'm getting some vibration coming through the steering wheel when turning in a stationary position. Yes it moans even more on full lock.
I've checked the fluid and there's no loss, no leaks from what I can tell either.
If I give it a few revs and try to turn the wheel there's no noise or vibration, would that suggest the pump is ok? I've read in a few posts about a return valve which might be faulty, can someone elaborate this for me.
I'm about to hit the button on ordering a new pump but I'm hesitant to waste my money.
Any advice or experience of this problem would be helpful. I'll keep this post updated for future reference.
