    Power steering

    Power steering heavy can't even turn wheel when stationary just wandering apart from usual checks like belt fluid etc could failed suspension components be a factor ie ball joints etc as I've noticed a pull to the left when driving thanks

    Has it actually gone completely, or does it only not provide assistance at low engine speeds (below ~2000rpm)?

    If it provides assistance over ~2000rpm, then it is probably just the pressure relief valve has got stuck (have you been on full lock at high engine speeds - ie drifting or donuts?)

    No but don't really give mine a hard time but it don't seem to be giving anything at the moment especially when trying g to park up or low speeds can't even get it to full lock without really swinging on it but all that said is the valve where the vacuum hoses connect to

    Facelift is different to prefacelift, don't think there is a difference between turbo and non turbo tho.
