hi chaps,

my steering has gone weird, some times it feels too easy turning, almost like the wheels aint even on the ground.
it does not do it for long, just a couple secs here and there, but its f*****g scary, makes it feel like its not turning at all even thou steering wheel is.
anyone had this before?

if it was the pump not working, wouldnt it make the steering very heavy in places, not very light?

nar it does it even driving very slow, hardly turning.
sposs it could also be the steering wheel NOT turning the steering at all for a very brief moment, if ya know what i mean?
its bloody weird, and quite a worry lol
