What kind of "spirited" driving? If it involved a lot of steering work then the pump might have sh*t itself

I've seen a pump go with a lot of steering work. If its under warranty then I don't think you have a problem. Could have even cooked the ps oil and gotten air in the system

Gday

I have same colour G6ET as you. I also was in SPIRITING driving mode yesturday.. after a 3rd gear power skate then swinging into a few tight loops, I was lock to lock in loop mode.. 20 min later when I arived in my drive way.. BAM no power steering. and now it makes clicking/griniding sounds. when steering still. once you build up speed its easier to turn. It has its moments of hard to soft to normal steer feel.....

What was your fix in the end mate?
