    HELP PLEASE PAS Pump? Rack? Belt?

    Right Power steering rack bollocked in my misses valver making really really bad noises now even driving and turning only slightly!!!

    If, sorry when the belt / pump finally gives up will i not be able to steer ????say for example going round roundabout and it to give up would it sort of feel like None PAS or will it just not work alltogether little concerned as i keep raping it i cant be arsed to pay renault again for replacement as it cost me 600 sheets on the willy i had!!!! i dont really want to waste some of my new loan on it if i can get away with it!!!

    Also as you can imagine i also do not want to die or put my misses in danger when she drives it without me there!!!!

    The steering is much heavier than a normal non assisted car as the PAS racks are a lot lower ratio. You'd be able to yourself off the road, but unless you have biceps like Arnie you'd not get very far.

    See ya

    Yeh if it fails it 'should' be safe, unless you're coming up to a 90 degree bend at 150mph lol.
