90 740 gle power steering

[Peter]

Hi,


small issue with the power steering on the car, first thing in the morning
there seems to be no assistance with right hand turns, left is fine.

After a few corners its back to normal but its a real struggle until it
comes good.

Seals by any chance? or worse?

Any ideas appreciated.

That would be a good answer to your problem, Peter. Just as a precaution does
the fluid smell burnt and is it's colour very dark? If so then it would probably
be quicker to fit a refurbished steering rack and replace the fluid.

Cheers, Peter.

Thanks for the replies, the fluid looks feels and smells like new and there
are no leaks.
Was sort of expecting a leak somewhere if the seals are not doing their job
or are they just internal?
