Steering
Hi all, really could do with some help, when i 1st get in my car and drive it the steering feels fine but after driving 4 like half hour or more it becomes real stiff and makes a creakin/rubbing noise. Dont think its the power steering pump as i can hear it workin all the time. Ne ideas or help would b great. Thanks simon.

Check PAS fluid level, may be low.

Get a Haynes manual mate then drain & replace the PAS fluid then bleed it.
