Solid steering

Recommended Posts

Hi guys just a quick question, changed the pas pump drive belt and tensioner on the weekend but there are times when driving the steering turns solid? Any ideas of what it could be? Doing my head in.

VR6 I take it? The steering momentarily getting heavy is belt slip usually. Did you fit a pattern belt or a genuine one?

Hi FishWick yes it's a vr6. It was replaced with a VW part? It's very intermittent and usually only happening when stationary or turning?

Happened again today? Becoming annoying. Quite dangerous to now. Especially when approaching roundabouts. Needs more investigation.

Could it not be some sort of air lock in the system? Try taking the cap off the reservoir and turning full lock left to right a few times. Mine was very notchy when I had a leak once
