Did the finishing touches to the corsaLET to day, fired it up sweet as a nut. Yeay!
Went to bleed the PAS up and i think the rack is fcked makes a very loud whining noise when you steer side to side, could it just need a bit of a drive to free everythin up in the rack as it been standing for ages before i bought it?? Or is it just fcked???
Thought the conversion went a bit to easy, i knew somthin had to go wrong!
Seemed to pull well though so it put a bit of a smile back on my face!

take top of PAS fluid pot, and just keep turning left to right and it will bleed the system and stop the noise

You tried bunging in that stuff that makes PAS quiet when it's noisy? No idea what it's called, but Halfrauds sell it!

The pump is defo goin round. The steering is still smooth so the PAS is working it's just noisey.
