Howdi, Im new here....
My VS is confusing the hell out of me...I park it at night and in the morning there is a mark of power steering fluid on the drive way(this is 100% flat) and the mark is aobut the size of a VS holden badge, maybe a bit smaller. Yet, the powersteering reservoir never seems to go down. I did check the hoses today and one was real loose so I did it up and the other was a little loose at the pump but thats now tight...My thoughts: maybe the loose hoses seeped and leaked and maybe there is residual fluid and the ps is not actually leaking.
The other issue which may be linked is if I turn to the right the steering creaks a bit...but it sounds more like bushes and not the powersteering. Especially cos the ps works fine...any ideas or thoughts out there??? This has me stumped?? or could it be a new pump is needed??
