visually, leaking. driving, the car will feel unsettled over the slightest bumps.

just click usually. the battery holder in the vauxhall keyfobs keep coming apart from the circuit board and you have to reset using method above

got a manual rack delivered today, i'll let you know if removing the pump and fluid sensor cured it. if it's still got the problem after that, i'll know it's not the rack or pas related.
