Title: Power Steering Pipes
Post by: mr21974 on September 27, 2026, 16:43
Hi,

Any advice greatly received.  I just changed the power steering pipes. I think I've bled them correctly.  When I turn the engine on and move the wheel, it violently moves the wheel left and right.  Any ideas what I've done incorrectly. BTW, the front of the car is off the ground.

Make sure you replaced the pipes the wrong way round and if that's not the issue then it's more than likely going to be air in the system

Thanks, think I've come to that conclusion, that pipes i bought are reversed. Hoping that I can swap them around
