Power steering

[djtlane]

Why does my car keep chucking out power steering fluid from the reservoir lid ?

[Coops]

they do it under heavy and constantly so cornering mate but if its doing it all the time for no apparant reason then not really sure, maybe its simply overfilled?

When the racks become older the internal seals are worn (obviously) :)
In my experience for some reason this causes more pressure in the reservoir - and then it overflows.

I had this issue - changed the rack - problem gone!

As michael said, it's usually the rack that causes the increased pressure.
