when i got my mk2 i had that red steering light on my dash, i got the power steering motor changed and now my power steering works and no red light on dash, motor cost me £35 from scrap yard

I would tend to agree that the power steering motor needs changing also.

A lot of these power steering faults occur when people constantly drive their cars around in 'city' mode, however I am not suggesting that this is what has happened with you.

Driving around constantly in city mode is not how the car was designed to operate and will eventually cause the failure of the electronic power steering.

Hi, how are you? I'm just wondering, what it costs to advertise on your site?
