In some cases BMW/Mini were doing extraordinary warranty claims so if it IS that, contacting them won't do any harm. Either way, I'm afraid it's not a particularly cheap fix if it does turn out to be the PAS pump
Forgot to say that there are no leaks and fluid is as its normal level, and steerin was perfect before this. At least she wasnt actualy driving when it failed. I may aswell give BMW a ring and see if they offer me anything. Also looking at what ive read on the internet it is a MAJOR problem, could be very dangerous too.
Thanks.
