Ceramicolive Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 to all, I'm new here and this is my first post I just bought a B6 S4 cab tonight and the steering is very heavy, there is obviously something wrong with it, it feels the same at any speed but at low speed is where it is most noticeable. Anybody on here a B6 guru or had this problem? Are pump/rack issues a thing on these I can't find a definitive answer doing a search lots of people reporting it but nobody posting the fix. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Welcome to the forum Anthony, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 Did you know it had the fault when you bought it? If not then I'd argue it's been missold. Is there any whining from the steering? whats the fluid level, is it low ect? cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That appears not to be the case as I have since found out. No untoward noises from the steering and the fluid is at max level, tyre pressures are okay. I've just took a gamble on the servotronic relay and bought another. Fingers crossed. If it's not that then it could be the module itself I suppose. Hoping it's not the rack/solenoid.

Ceramicolive Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 It was an easy fix in the end I changed the 640 servotronic relay, it took me 5 minutes and it's back to normal. superb, I even got the relay for £25 so a massive result all round!
