Power steering problem!!!

Hi,

I've just bought a 2004 RX8 and i have a problem with the power steering it is much heavier when turning to the right and is noticeable even when driving at speed. I was wondering if any1 has come across the same problem? The warning light on dash is not on.

Have you checked the power steering fluid? Check that first...

Wow Monchie.....that wasn't very nice!
Of course, I know why you did it..............the OP should've searched first.

OP............one tire worn more than others?
Properly inflated?

Since you don't have the "normal" power steering issue associated with coolant overflow onto the connectors, maybe you should check out this thread for at least one possibility?
