You'll know for certain what steps to take after that. Had the fluid been flushed since the car was built? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an ex demo car apparently, so I wouldn't think they'd have flushed it. Its making the same sound as in the video below, just slightly quieter... but I wouldn't have expected this from such a new car. Seems odd you know?

I've seen a few second hand units for $100 to $250. I wouldn't expect anything to fail on a car with 30 thousand k's. You might need to get onto the dealer about getting it fixed under warranty if it's bothering you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jutting New Member 9 Member For: 6y 6m 8d Posted 27/12/17 03:53 AM Author Share Posted 27/12/17 03:53 AM All sorted. It was the power steering pump. No idea what exactly went wrong with it, they just said it was faulty and replaced it. Nicely spotted Puffwagon, thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had a few cars that have made ps noises so it can't hurt to mention it. Edited 27/12/17 07:53 AM by Puffwagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
