Cheers all.... just getting pee'd off slightly...a long story!!!! BTW, I'm not slagging anyone off!!!!!! Just feeling low

Had the steering rack refurbed a couple of months ago but the steering started playing up again (not the best when going around the Nurburgring or driving along an autobahn with the family in tow).

It was annoying as it didn't happen very often but it's getting worse? I had the car in with Xtreme before I went away but they couldn't find a fault saying it's natural for the steering to get heavy at full lock.... Problem is it's not like that and just seems to switch off at times..... Frustrating but difficult to analyse I guess.

I last week I called them again and booked it in ... After leaving it there I called them for them to ask why I had left it? I said for the steering to be looked at... They said I'd have to book it in as they were busy.... Strange I thought I had booked it in? Not sure why it wasn't recorded? It does happen though and I've been very happy with them in the past.

That's why I'm frustrated.... the car's been away and I'm no better off

I was just getting worried that the family (not even me) would miss Sunday.

I'm going to chill with a beer now
