Ok, so I have power steering, that leaks(don't know wether this is the problem, but don't think so) , but the problem is, that it's hard to turn right (harder) when it's quite easy to turn left. :1zhelp:
Does anyone know where the problem could be?
Thanks!

there is a bar on the left side of the engine that is more like a brace. If there is one on the right side and someone connected it wrong long ago...., this could cause a hang up. It's pissing cats and dogs here or I would even run out and get my tsrm. Check everything on that side of the engine and look for anything that may rub against something, his probablt isn't what your problem is, but This is where I would start.

First, I looked at the pressure, and it was wrong after all (though last time I checked it the car was still steering weirdly (but maby the air got out during the night :aigo: )) Thanks for reminding me the pressure thing, I'll try it in the morning,, and if the problem persists, I'll try the bar thing:icon_razz
Thanks a lot!:icon_bigg

hey man I lost my power sterring pump reseviour cap and are currently driving around with a condom on it, so I could race this morning. We took out at 4 am just so we could get 2 hours of pork free limited interuptions. Worked out well.

I raise my thread from the dead and maybe someone could relocate it to general/suspension section?

Well in those almost 4 years :)D) now the steering rack has been changed (should be ok), the bushing have been changed, the wheels have been changed. Everything aligns perfect. The mech has looked a bit into other moving parts - they should be ok.
But STILL it's harder to steer to the right than to the left!!
Can it be that a line for PS is clogged or damaged and the system doesn't work right?
Anyone with ideas?
