yesterday morning i was headed to school and i realized that as i turn left or right, i feel a tightness in the wheel, sort of a resistance. not sure what it is, and i dont hear any weird noises. i added more fluid but it appears to be leakin out. any ideas guys?
it seems to only leak when im actually driving, but also i find some after i park under the car next to the passenger side front wheel..
A lot of the hoses tend to leak, so far a 5 dollar bottle of fluid has lasted me 1 year, i think its better than a 150 dollar part
It's a thing, that I only notice, when it's really cold out... like below 50. I had a creaking, from a lack of fluid. I filled it up, and a couple days later, I noticed a puddle under my car, come to think of it, it was also on the drivers side. I touched it, and smelled it, and it too was the same smell, as the PS fluid. I don't know where it's leaking from, but it scared the crap out of me! I thought my car was leaking oil... It's all over the back of my engine, also... So, I think that it's just that. I HOPE, anyhow!
hmm if the leak is on the drivers side then its possible its the rack... but hopefully not b/c im pretty sure that would be a huge pain to change with the engine in... i would check to see if fluid is coming out of the boot on the rack, just turn your wheel all the way to the right and take a peek, though it might be easier with the wheel off... a bit off topic but below 50 is cold to you?! i would kill for 40 degree weather at this point, its 7* right now .... haha sorry ill stop bitching about the weather...
