MX5 2004 MODEL - Reverberation of steering on slow full turn

Post by BISCUIT100 » Wed Jul 06, 2011 9:52 am

Hi recently purchased a 2004 mx5 and having problems with a steering reverberation when turning hard to full lock left or right. It makes a shuddering noise when in the last 5 degrees of full lock on the turn ? The hydraulic pump makes a slight noise at this point of a tight slow turn. :o

Air in the hydraulic system causing a valve to chatter can result in this sort of problem..

As a child, on cold mornings I was happy to warm my cold feet in a cow pat, but I detest bull$hit. LOL
