My steering has started to feel stiff and slightly lumpy when I start from cold, it is ok when warmed up , not sure if the power steering pump is on its way out, I have checked the fulid it is not low but it does look brown and dirty, any help appreciated, thanks. |

Hi Nige,
Not heard of any power steering problems, so I guess yours is a "first of a kind"
How old is your LC, ?
What miles and service does it have?

Hi Vette, cruiser has done 115k been serviced every 10k, not by mr T I have a good mechanic I have used for years, checked power steering fluids its ok, he has an idea that the auxillary belt maybe slipping when cold and damp, it just feels vague and a bit loose/lumpy for the first quarter of mile then its normal. |
