Unhappy Steering heavy only sometimes

Hi,

I have an RB5 and sometimes the steering is really heavy when going slow. It seems intermittent as sometimes it's fine. I think most of the time it's fine when cold.

When driving at speed it's fine. Starting to really annoy me now.

Thanks Phill

Thanks for the reply, I got another (used) power steering pump on the way so I'll try that before I buy a new one. If it cure it then I'll gladly buy a new one

I'm far too mature to do doughnuts and drifting

Thanks Phill
