It's not on my thirdgen, but my other car. My '86 Sunbird. When I turn left, and only left, the stearing seems to get really tough, like somethings stopping it. it doesn't do it all the time, and it's not all the way through the turn either. It seems as though the power stearing fluid needs replacment, but I replaced it not that long ago... Any other ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Jay

Good ol GM lazy rack.

Let me guess, it gets better after it warms up, and mostly only does it a couple of times, then its OK.

That about sums it up... so I guess it's a common problem? Is there a fix?

 

yep, a new rack and pinion.
