Power steering "fighting back"

mercredi 11 février 2015

Hey guys and girls,

Firstly I know this post shouldn't be here but as I can't post in fault thread yet I will post here and move,

So the power steering on my '05 is having a few niggles. On start up it feels normal, drive 4-5 miles once the car has warmed up a bit, the steering goes heavy and resistant to turn (mainly right) and feels like it is fighting back like I'm not allowed to turn lol. It still turns, just more physical effort is needed. It is very temperamental aswell. Like it'll go heavy then a me down the road go light again and repeat.

The steering wheel doesn't self centre either when it feels resistant.

A few points to note:

There is no lights on the dash

I have located the cable harness (thanks to tutorials on here) and I've cleaned the connections (didn't look corroded)

Battery is fine

Tyre pressures are fine

May just be coincedince, but when DSC is off it seems to inprove for longer but fault still occurs

Real head scratcher

Thanks in advance
