After about 15 mins driving the power steering goes stiff , slow down and it gets better , fluid level , belt tension , all ok ?????? all ive done lately is swop from auto to man box . Its N/A so no hicas

im sure the gear box has a sensor on it that changes the steering at speeds, sounds like yours is either not connected or faulty, sorry dont have the details on where to find it mate but a real mecahic will be along shortly

Sounds like the speed sensor to me as well......... ;)

that what i thought but the speedo works fine ?

If you swapped the box' did you swap sensors?-I beleive manwell and auto are different. ;)

there is no revolution sensor on the man box . not sure what it does though

You mean the box' you got in now has no speed sensor? :confused:

a did a auto/man conversion . all there is on the man box is speedo drive and reverse switch , so the power steering must take its info from the speedo drive ?

Yup!-that's the speed sensor!-but did you leave the manual speedo drive in the box?-As I said I'm sure they are different.

yes i left the man one in the man box . i am going to check the voltage at the solenoid on the rack in the morning . to try and narrow it down

well i`ve swopped the power steering pump and its still the same ........... looks like ill have to find a rack ??????

Stop giving it Viagra
