HELP:powersteering problems My cars powersteering has been giving me problems, the car is very hard to steer at idle and low speed and makes noise, but when the car is cold and i first start driving it is fine but as it gets hotter the harder it steers. Also i thought there was coolant in my powersteering so I by-passed my powersteering cooler and took out the old fluid with a little pump. Any help would be appreciated thanks.....
yes i did mean bubbles. have you tugged on the power steering pulley? I work at a GM dealership and sometimes the shaft on the pump will crack and or break. it will look fine till u pull on it. Also you dont have any leaks? how about from the pinion seal of the steering gear? also you can poke a pinhole in the inner tie rod boots and see if there is a fluid build up in there. it will drip out at a descent rate if so. thats a quick check for the steering gear seals.
