Hello, I'm Alberto form Italy, and I'd like to ask you for an information about the power sterering of my 33 1.7 16v.
When I run at 100 km\h or more, the vibrate in a way that make me think that the power steering doesn't work pretty well, and that the steering oil maybe heats too much.Maybe the oil pump has to be replaced with a better one, what do you think about?
Byebye,

Alberto.

Are your wheels balanced?

1. Are your wheels balanced?
2. Any uneven tyre wear?
3. Suspension bushes knackered?

That's the order of likelyhood.

Goodluck!

Bob

Try swapping the wheels front to back and see if anything changes. It won't cost you anything to try.
