Powersteering misbehaving

Recommended Posts

Hi all, having an odd issue with the PS on my G60 if anyone has any ideas?

Just finished a rebuild and all running sweet but PS failed to come back to life, not sure of the pump condition as I had never run the engine before now.

 

Replaced the pump and fluid and when I started it all looked good, pump was making the familiar sound and steering felt good - ran it for about 10mins and looked to have got all the air out, pump seemed to settle and then nothing... no PS again

 

Anyone have any ideas?

Using Febi 06161 PS fluid, noted as G002 000 compatible; steering rack was original to the car and working prior to transplant

There might be air in there somewhere - have you tried bleeding it with the reservoir cap off and working it slowley from side to side?

Hi@fendervg,

Yeah tried that and it seemed to shift most/all of the air, I'll give it another go and see if it'll push it around
