Hello all,
Have a confusing one:
At low speeds or no speed (parked, foot off the brake)...turning the steering wheel left or right creates a crazy shimmy/vibration. There isn't any more or less resistance in the wheel...it's just this crazy shimmy. You can physically see the tire shimmying when it does it in the steering wheel.
Power steering fluid is right on the mark, not seeing any air bubbles pop in the reservoir as i go from lock to lock, pump isn't making any noise, not seeing any obvious play in the ball joints/tie rods, etc etc etc.
I'm leaning towards something's up with the power steering pump or something in the rack itself is frigged...but only because I have no clue haha
Looks something like what's up with this prius (just not as crazy): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vLwX8nBL88
Anyone even heard of something like this? Any troubleshooting ideas?
Thanks.
