Question Re: A4 S-Line Power Steering Issue With 19 nch Wheels

Hi all

I just put 20in wheels on my 2011 a4 for less than a week and now the wheel are difficult to turn. Almost impossible when the car not moving. And very hard when moving. They didn't doing this at the begening. So I opened the power steering fluid reservoir. And. No more oil in it. So I have a leek. But I did not see any oil drop or broken line.

Anybody have an idea of what broken ???

Thanks

Check the power steering lines to/from the pump; look for signs of leaking. Being a 2011, you should still have some factory warranty - suggest checking with your dealer.

I found the leek. Its one of the rack rubber end. There a big hole there. Is ir normal thats rubber is full of oil? Or I just have to change it. And add new oil?

And by the way. No more warranty.

Thanks
