Hi There,
All go with the car at the moment!
Yesterday i was heading into work, just off the motorway and on a back road that parallels the A1, noticed a smell and dark smoke!!!
Pulled into a bus stop to have a look. Popped the bonnet and saw something from the back of the engine. Couldn't see anything obvious and I was about a mile from work and my local garage on my industrial estate.
Started up, slightly odd noise, nursed the car to the garage and the steering was HEAVY so that was odd. Got there and had a quick look, fluid underneath and suspected issue with the power steering and fluid getting on the engine/exhaust (smoke).
Took things apart, bit of fluid in the PS and found an obvious leak. Hose 4E2 422891 G with a rip in the flexi part.
TPS £204+vat - What a joke! Ebay second hand, extra fiver for deliver tomorrow for £35ish will do a lot better. Probably quicker than TPS too!
Sometimes these places really do make you wonder!!!
Found my Jeep's MOT (back up, hardly used) had lapsed when I went to tax it yesterday so stuck in my dads 05 Bentley GT, life is hard
