Hi All,
I just replaced the Power steering pump in my VT Calais as the old one was leaking.
Now my powersteering is really heavy at low speeds and when the car is stationary.
I have tried beeding the system as I think there is air in it per the direction in the below thread and still the steering is heavy.

If jack the front end up and turn the wheels with the car Off, i get a lot of air bubbles coming out of the reservoir.
If I do the same thing with the car running I get a lot less air coming out of the reservoir when i go from lock to lock. Basically no air.
Just wondering if any of you guys might be able to shed some light of this? I have tried bleeding the system about 5 times now and still the power steering is heavy.
How long should it take to get all air out of the system?
Cheers.
