broom broom Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 Hi all need a bit of help ...... I have a 99 T plate ford Ka that has suddenly developed a steering problem the steering seems to be ok at times then suddenly it goes heavy like it's resisting which is worse when steering to the right then to the left the problem isn't there constantly but is there alot i checked the steering fluid level which was a little low but not very it's been topped up and hasn't moved since but still got the problem any idea's??? from the recipts with the car it had a new steering rack in 2002 due to a leak is this something thats probably going to need replacing again??

?Bleeno? Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 You mind there is air in the system and requires bleeding (when was the steering fluid last changed?) or the auxiliary drive belt might be worn. Just a couple of things you can do before contemplating changing a steering rack. Quote
