You will need the EPS unit replaced will cost about £700, if it is not bothering you to much I would just let it go as is.

when i had an engine conversion in mine, the eps used to turn off at random times. was quite scary when going round corners, seemed to sort itself out after a few days tho

I don't have a puncture and i wasn't tramlining on the road.

It corrected itself afterwards and steering feels fine and dandy again.
It's just a guess thats its the power steering btw. Just wanted to know if anybody has had this before?



torque steer sensor in ecu-common fault on corsa c meriva and tigra b-basically ecu recognises torque of steering wheel been turned and calculates how much power to send when turning wheels-sometimes one sensor reads wrong restricting aid when turning one way-makes it feel like car is pulling.

just earlier tonight, hence i'm back home early.
at first thought it was a puncture, but couldn't here anything that resembles a flat tyre. checked and tyres are fine.

everything feels fine now though.
just started behaving odd for a few miles.
