power steering

[jamesy]

i think i may have a problem with my power steering often when i turn the wheel it makes a suishing noise ive checked the reservoir and it seems at an adequate level what could this be?

The 16v/Williams pumps are almost always noisy..

cheers mate no real need to worry then no?

the power steering system is self bleeding. Park the car on grass or gravel, and turn the wheel from full left lock to full right lock.

Do this until you get bored.......... Say 20 times.........

System will be a lot quiter after that.

When i first got mine, a couple of time when i put it on full lock it made a banging sort of noise, but its not done it since
