hi everyone

 

quick question, last few days been driving my car and has started coughing when turning right, going forward and left is fine, sounds wierd, has anyone had this problem before and know how to resolve

 

thank you for any advise in advance

my mate has the exact opposite problem!!!

 

 

seriously though, is it like fuel starvation?? could be a knackered swirl pot, but i don't think that very likely, sounds like an electrical problem.

Could be a combination of the FICD, an air lock in the PS creating more pressure on one side of the rack, or the PS sensor connection on the rack, although i would have thought that sensor would effect the steering as a whole.

 

When you turn the steering, especially noticeable at stand still, the revs of the engine raise to compensate for the power drain. If you have corroded connections or gunked up Fast idle control device, this may cause the problem.

 

I would give Jeff a PM, he is bound to know as he deals with these cars day in day out.

as above ^^^...does it cough when you are stood still and turn the steering wheel???
