Boxman Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I have a 59 plate s-max and i have just noticed a faint whine/whistle from the power steering when steering on the spot in tight situations. Is this a prelude to a steering rack or pump fault? I have heard that these cars are prone to these from other posts on this site. Would love some advice for a `heads up` so I can forward plan. With regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nighthawk Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Good idea to not turn when stopped as it can put strain on the system, even the slightest movement can help. Sent from my HUAWEI Ascend P2 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
