walterwaste Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 When I was reversing out of my driveway i noticed that my clutch made a loud ¨humming¨ sound. I continued drind also nving aoticed that my steering was rattling/scraping when i was turing and got heavier the more i drove. When I got home again i open the powersteering fluid reservoir and the fluid was empty. How should I troubleshoot this issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 It sounds like there's a leak in the system. The noise could be because the powerfluid pump has ran dry. Definitely worth looking for any areas where it's leaked from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walterwaste Posted October 31, 2022 Author Share Posted October 31, 2022 Just looking at the oilstains on the ground it looks like its coming from the steering rack. I will take a closer look tomorrow evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buying a used one tomorrow and we will see if that fixes the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
