I believe it's as Robs guide by the way, but thought I'd check model variants...?  :)

Don't know if this varies by which side the steering wheel is but in my late 2,6 (which I expect to be exactly as yours) it is behind the fuse box  :y Must remove the panel covering the steering rack/shaft to reach it.

mine's up under the fusebox - in the "down the footwell on your head" position. It's red and says servotronic on it.

Drove TB's briefly yesterday. Much easier to steer than mine.

So it's not servotronic relay.

What's next easiest to check..?

Baring in mind symptoms are complete opposite of a tired pas pump. In that the assistance is greater at low revs, and much heavier at high revs. Is sumat wired up backwards...? :-\

Just rang the dealer, and there is mention of warranty work on a steering linkage. But there are no further details available.

Well, its pump or box.  Pump easier.

Just a thought Chris, have you changed the idler on that one yet :-\ iirc there are different lengths...not sure what effect that would have though.

I have never done an idler, believe it or not. But the Dealer "could" have changed it I suppose.



Only other thing in my mind is the known to be pitted top mount bearings. :-\

That wouldn't help because you'd be trying to turn against the springs :-\ thinking about it, migght it be worth changing them :-\

They do turn, but they will do when jacked. Not sure how to check while driving at 40mph. :(

As you say though, might be worth changing them. :-\ I even tried driving up the road with the top mount nuts loose, knocked like hell but still stiff steering. :( loose nuts wouldn't affect the load of the car on the bearings though I suppose.


But my gut feeling is an on going issue.
