Power Steering

[blackie_zs]

my power steering fluid is leaking and its running out every few days.

 

i cant see where the leak is coming from, but its dripping off the bottom of the sump.

 

has anyone had the same problem, or know where the leak is coming from.

 

thanks.

 

ps, i'm new.. Hello!

Nobody can know where it's coming from.

 

You need to find out.

As sidrick says its abit hard to tell over the internet where the leak is, however I too had a similar problem a few years back and struggled to find a leak anywhere. It turned out if was the resevour itself that was leaking. Its made in two parts and the join obviously wasn't as strong as it used to be. The only time it leaked was when you were on full lock and the fluid was being pumped the most. Def worth checking out, and prob worth doing it with someone at the wheel feeding it back and forth from full lock.
