lexstar16v 0 Posted April 18, 2007 Everytime I turn the wheel anywhere near full lock I get an awful squeaking rubbing sound! is it the fan belt or the power steering fluid? Thanks Alex Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
metz 0 Posted April 19, 2007 It sounds like the powersteering belt to me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goldie 2 Posted April 19, 2007 It sounds like the powersteering belt to me. Yip, id agree with that. There should be a slight noise when the car is at full lock though.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vdubCorrado 0 Posted April 21, 2007 correct me if i am wrong but a 16v is a 16v in a VW... so they're all horizontal mounted engines so the belt system can nto be driving a cooling fan. there for all VW's with horizontal mounted engines have electric cooling fans... but i would still gesture that your power steering is the one squealing because it does have a bit of pressure on that belt...
