I've noticed that the p/s has got markedly noisier within the last few days, especially at the extremes of the steering rack. She is going in to Ferrnhursts anyway next week, so can be looked at then, but any comments or advice would be welcome.

Can be a symptom of over filling pas fluid, i believe. Worth a check.

Thanks Toney. P/S fluid has been left untouched since I bought her about 7 weeks ago.

I assume CASTROL TRANSMAX DexIII should be fine?

All quiet again now as the dipstick was showing 2 or 3mm below the minimum marker!

Hi Digger, glad all ok now. A few ml overfill should be fine, I think. Cheers!
