Problem: Power Steering
So I have a problem in which I have lost most to all of my power steering in my e30. When I lost it, the fluid levels were half full, I then filled it up and turned the steering wheel lock to lock several times. Turning right sucked in the fluid and turning left made the fluid go back into the reservoir, which I assume meant there are no blockages in the lines.
After I had lost the power steering, fluid was dripping from the bolt that connects the steering shaft to the rack and not the boots, which I have squeezed.
2 days after, the leaking has stopped. But the power steering sometimes works and other times it doesn't. Mostly 98 percent of the time it isnt working.
Could this mean that my pump has gone bad? How can I fix this problem.
