Hi guys,

I've got a 1.6 vtr 2001 and i've had it off the road for about 5 months now while ive been at uni. Started her up today and the power steering isn't working :/ theres no leaks and the fluid is up the max mark... any ideas?

Check the fuse and all the connections, if they are all dandy then the pump has gone. Easy scrap yard job :y:
