eddie bullit 37 Posted November 9, 2007 Hi fellas the steering on my miami pug feels a little dead around centre and feels like its wandering ever so slightly. When stationary there is no play / loose feeling at all and the wheels do "wiggle" from the slightest movement of the steering wheel. My previous pug a 1.6 cherry without power steering never suffered. It could'nt be down to the power steering rack could it? Hoping its tired worn bushes or something similar. Thanks in advance for any words of wisdom... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

James_m 0 Posted November 10, 2007 I suspect its the Pas rack. Mine is the same, for some reason they dont seem to work properly with no assistance hooked up. Maybe it causes premature wear, because im sure mine was fine when i first fitted it Pretty annoying because, the standard rack is too slow in my opinion and nobody seems to make a decent Quick rack so the options are limited....

I've got a quick rack conversion kit from WMMS. Yet to build it though, but looks OK. Somebody on here has one of the racks in there rally car and seems to give good results. 2.5 turns lock to lock. Costs a bit though! Incidentally, I had the same problem with my PAS rack. Gave vague steering on right turns, and all I had left to change was the rack. Changed everything including the steering column shaft! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
