The boys at elite gave the power steering system a flush and new fluid and its seems to be working good so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the shudder becuase the ute was on the hoist. paul said it would go by itself and it has cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford TSB fix was to bleed system the first time customer complained, and replace hoses with stiffer ones the second time. Don't know how far down the BA I --> BF II line problem existed. My Nov '03 BA T had the issue and eventually had hoses replaced under warranty. My BF I doesn't have the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low speeds carparks and sh*t.But like I said all good at the moment. All I can say is go and see someone about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have this as well, just thought it was an No Cost Option from Ford... (mine is a brand new BFII F6 RSpec)My Olds EF Falcon Wagon does it as well as their Fairlane Concord... so just thought it was normal when parking a Ford... that's the only time I seem to get it...Now that you guys have said its a 'problem' ill mention it to the service boys week after next when its in there - yet again... 6th time in 3 months (each time for a week)...
