Steering noise

Post by Bongoplotter » Thu Oct 04, 2018 8:29 pm

Any ideas on why the steering sounds like a plane putting on the brakes for landing, please folks? Was just on right hand steering for a day or two but now its anything at all apart from straight ahead. Steering fluid, maybe? Thanks

Easy to check steering fluid, I'd certainly start there.
Take a torch, toilet roll, and tea bags.

Thanks, steering fluid was really low & it already feels much better after a top up

Sound. :)

I'd keep an eye just in case there's a leak. :!:
