    does it make any groaning noises? check all hoses and clamps are secure, and bleed the system, jack up front two wheels, start car, full lock a few times, then switch off, lower again and try it again. if nto you may have a rack problem

    how hard do you turn the wheel ......turning it quicker than normal will stall vehicle.
