Does anyone know of any power steering problems with F2's - our '14 plate Lux makes a groaning noise on full lock?
We're going to Italy next month and don't want problems.

I had that problem the other month - ended up having to replace the power steering reservoir.

There are some good links on the forum on how to do it.

Thanks buddy - I'll check them out

My MY13 has also had this noise on full lock since I picked it up way back in 2013, and I have done absolutely nothing about it. The plan was to let it develop, however it hasn't got any worse in the last 6 years and 50,000 odd miles, so have left it alone.

As and when it gets worse, and/or fails, then I'll deal with it. For now, it's really not that much of an issue to me.

That's really interesting - makes me wonder what's causing it................

No idea - I mentioned it at its 1st year service as I thought that it might be an airlock, but they didn't mention anything was obviously wrong, so just carried on with it. The only observation that I have made over the years is that it is more noisy in milder/warmer weather than winter coldness, but hasn't affected in any way it's performance.

As it's coming up to 7 years old, I'll probably flush it through with new fluid as a treat later in the year, and see if it makes any difference, but it's not anything that concerns me presently.
