mine done the same look under osf wheel find the steering knuckle spray some wd40 on it hope it helps

check you have fluid, the filler is at the front, drivers side by the radiator. I seem to remember it is ATF fluid, pinky red stuff, most filling stations should have some.

Normally does the trick for me.

If it is making more noise than normal then it is a sign that it wants some fluid.

I would imagine the power steering would put extra strain on the alternator & battery, are both o.k. ?

The standard PAS on a cerbera is hydraulic, unless it has been ocnverted to the same system the T350 etc use which is electric (I know Joolz was offering this).

In that case, ignore my previous question
