Hi All, hope your well.
I think I have an issue with my power steering...
Sometimes if i've just started the engine and im say..coming out of a parking space if i spin the wheel to right lock and then try and quickly spin it left to straighten up it feels like the power steering cuts out for a split second then it goes soft again.
Anyone had this before or knows what it could be?

Its the ring of bearings at the top of the strut. Took mine out and they were rotton and fell apart in my hand. Once replaced the problem was solved.

I have this problem too, but it's not my top mount bearings. Changed 'em. My steering is pretty inconsistent, so I've just bought some fluid to change it. Just gotta work out where to drain it from.

Not sure if you can drain it!(officially) Only way is by taking off the power steering hose and turn the car over. (make sure the hose is in a bucket!
Wait for more answers first tho.
