    Going to the garage with the car in the morning it's a 94 laguna. Just thought I'd run the problem by you lot first:o.
    There is an awful grinding noise when the steering wheel is turned. It's been like that about 2 weeks but only got worse in the last few days. Not going to bother getting it fixed if its going to cost a fortune but was thinking it was a power steering problem. Any ideas?

    Don't want anyone loosing sleep over this so I thought i'd post an update. Just checked the power steering fluid and there was, eh, none in it. Bought a bottle poured it in and car is all better:o Bit embarrassed but i'm only a girl.....!

    You have a leak then somewhere:) Probably a leaking steering rack

    do you not have to top it up anyway every so often?

    No, you shouldn't, it doesnt burn off like engine oil.

    More than likely its leaking somewhere proabably into the boots.

    New steering rack is the usual fix.
