Munchausen by Landrover !

My wife thinks I have Munchausens by proxy - but for my car!!!!!

I had the car back today after having a new power steering pump, this is after it had a new steering rack and then a new steering resevoir - all of which I never really thought there was a problem but my local friendly Stratstone thought I should change anyway!!!

Long story short, since they starting messing with it I have this constant feeling that it is not right. This, I thought was down to the knock on effect of changing one component and then effecting the other... and besides I always thought the steering pump was always a bit noisy.. Any way I've got it back today after having practically a whole new steering system in the past 2000 miles and I still dont feel happy Shocked Sure the steering works OK, there is a little more powersteering noise than normal, and the noisy pump hs gone away, but there is just something not quite right Confused

Could I have Munchausens?? is this norml for Landrover owners?? Should I just forget it and drive it until it breaks?? Is this normal or do I need to see a doctor??

Help!!! I'm starting to think I may actually have a disorder... Twisted Evil I'm alreay starting to look for things to go wrong and I constantly look on ebay for spare parts for if and when I need to change them?
