tony tt Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Hi folks i know the heavy steering threads have been discussed and please forgive me in advance. I got my fmic fitted last fri at long last, im happy with it but ever since it was fitted my steering seems heavier than it use to. Is there any way this is related to the fmic going on it was fine and light before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zofix Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 It's 100% the power steering lines, that they did something with, probably to make room for the intercooler to fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I would say its a power steering related problem after your cooler has been relocated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Is it making any noise when you turn it lock to lock ? p/s fluid is easy to bleed as you just lock to lock the steering with the engine running after topping up the p/s reservoir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony tt Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 not much noise no it is working though its just heavier than normal. Ill get the garage to give it the once over today cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
