Hi all!
I was wondering if anyone had experienced this before.
Today it has been raining heavily all day, and the roads are very greasy. I turned around a roundabout to find my back end fly out (What happened to the puma's handling!? ) and with a bit of luck - and opposite lock, I managed to get myself out of the drift and keep on the road. I wasn't going fast round the roundabout, it just felt like I was on ice.
Anyway, since this when I turn the steering wheel, in either direction, I get a scratching noise which sounds like it comes from the steering column, along with a sort of groaning noise from the front.
It's dark and wet, so I haven't been able to take a proper look at it yet, but to be honest, I probably wouldn't know what I was looking for anyway.
The power steering fluid is on the max level, and the fluid is a nice cherry red, so I don't think it's the fluid.
I'm really hoping I don't have a massive bill coming along, as I only bought the lovely puma 4 weeks ago
Thanks in advance for any help.
