Recently, in the last 2-3 days when I have been turning around corners the steering wheel shakes and judders.
In a straight line the car is fine but also when stationary, with engine running, when I turn the wheel it judders through the wheel and steering wheel.
You can actually see the shaking/juddering when I turn the wheel and watch it from behind the door.
This happens from the moment I turn the wheel to full lock.
Any ideas what this might be?

Check your power steering fluid level

The tracking is waaay out, It pulls to the right so much it steers round corners its self.
Im taking it to be tracked tomorrow, hopefully that will fix it.
Thanks for the info

If the power steering fluid is low enough to cause this problem, would that suggest there is a leak?
Thanks
