Power steering pump ? Steering rack ? Or knuckle ?
Lately I have noticed that intermittently if I'm driving straight ahead it sometimes feels like the steering wheel is "locked" and I have to sort of forceably move thevehegl left or right to unlock its whilst driving , almost like there's no power steering but it's more locked than heavy tho
it's not constant and never more than a couple of times once I've done it it's fine
fluid is fresh and correct level , belt is new and tight
I'm thinking pump but it doesn't whine or anything , steeeing is heavy ish tho compared to other cars I drive .
Pump , rack or steering knuckle ????
cheers

Have the exact same problem, just replaced the UJ which hasn't fixed it so had it back in and put on a shaker plate and actually looks like the drivers side bearing has play even though there is no symptoms and it's solid, so got a complete hub ready to get changed if that doesn't do it it'll be rack and pump next.
Been getting all the parts from mattyB, will update this thread once hub done

in my opinion first lube the u joint maybe seized.
i had same problem but not impreza. first removed rust then lube good grease be sure work smoothly
if it's not work properly replace it.
