Slight problem after sitting in a car park for 15-20 minutes tonight with the engine running and the heater on full chat, i went to pull away and my car would only go in a straight line! The power steering seemed like it didnt work. Once the car was moving i managed to wrestle it into turning and it seemed to get back to normal as i drove on and tried to get it to turn! Slightly scary because i began to think what if it happens when im trying to take a corner!! Rung my mechanic and he said check the fluid levels which i did and they are fine! :n:

well my friend....

thats just a start.... im not tryin to sh*t you up BUT

that means the motor is on its way out...

usually at first you will experience it cut on and off

then the relay blows since it induces back emf and blows the relay on occasions

and then it just stops and smokes away and packs up like mine once did

if you have any further probs, PM me.... can also show you how its fitted..
