hi all can anyone help on the above situation.

 

No cuz I aint a member of FFOC

 

im a member of the forum but only paid members can veiw that page

 

I'm not in the clique, sorry.

 

hi all just been playing in my car on the private land doing a donut. after i had done it. when i went to park the car up the steering went tight.
further to this i took it for a drive going above 10mph for steering was easy agian. when got it back and opend engine there was splashes of oil on the right hand side and oil leaking from near the drivers side of axel(not sure if from axel or engine)

has anybody any suggestion what this could be and how it can be repaired

 

Have a look under the car and see if there is oil on the drivers side suspension. If there is it could be the crank oil seal that needs replacing.

 

i'll have to look in day light. will that effect the steering if so or just the suspension

sorry for asking all questions but i'm a novice with cars. ive learnt not to do silliy things in it though

 

Sure the power steering pump aint leaking?

 

Does it make a whining noise when you turn the wheel?

 

yes it also sounds like its grinding. i think all the fluid has leaked and empty now

 

Power steering pump has failed/leaked then mate. Happend to mine.

 

Sounds like it, hey same car as my old man's in the sig
