Hi All..
Some of you were probably following my thread and know that I have just converted my ex MOD 90 to PAS and 200tdi power.
However I seem to be having a few teething problems (hope thats what they are!!) with the PAS.
It seemed fine to start with but I now have 2 problems.
Firstly at full lock the PAS pump seems to stall and the belt just squeeks and jumps on the pulley.
Ive bled the PAS box a few times now but doesnt seem to have helped?
second problem seems to come at around 50mph when I get a huge amount of steering wheel vibration / wobble ie enough that I have to slow down through fear of it shaking to pieces!
Any ideas? on the plus side the TDi seems to be good - if only I could properly test it!
Cheers

is the stering damper ok

Dont know, its the same one as before PAS, all I did was swap steering boxes.
There was a very small amount of wobble before fitting PAS but nohing to worry about but its LOTS worse now - ie enough that I dont want to drive it until its fixed!
I do have the steering damper off the donor vehicle so cant hurt trying! :-)
Any other ideas while I have the steering guard off again :-)
Cheers

the wobble id say is either the steering damper
or the swivle housings need tightening up
the belt skipping on full lock
i thought they all do that :roll:
at least both of my 90's on v belts do, just tighten it up more to stop the squeal :lol:
