Make sure there are no blockages in the lines or box/rack before installing another pump

okies - grinding in the steering when turning over - wheel bearings have been done, so has the steering shaft - still sound like the pump? the P/S seems to kick in & out, so i assume the pump is part of it...

dont forget to check your tyre pessures, ive had a simalar problem right to the point that the bloody steering wouldent turn with out the car moving, so i checked my tyers and i only had about 10psi in the fronts, i toped them up and every thing came fine

thanks mark The belt is slipping if the belt is worn it may be tight but resting in the bottom of the groove and not on the sides causing it to slip
