pugwash Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 For a while now my PAS has been making some funny noises- a lot of graunching and squealing. The assistance no longer seems linear- sometimes its stronger sometimes weaker. I thought this was a sympton of low oil, however when i checked the oil level this morning it was fine. One thing i did notice however was that the fluisd in the resevoir was very foamy- so much so that the fluid looked pink not red. What could be wrong with my PAS- can the fluid degrade substantially enough for these symptons, or is it new pump/motor time? P.s. apologies for crappy title- saved it before i realised it made no sense! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJ101 Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 it's a Volvo of some sort- 850 2.5 GLbought it from some monkey out in the sticks- bloody wideboys :D (for eveyone else- i bought the vehicle from TJ101- it seemed like a good idea at the time ) The correct version is,, 850 2.5 20v CD, and i think it was your better half's good idea, rather than buy "another project" unfinished also i hear you did more off road in it whilst in the Lakes,, than you have in any LR product lately now, i am sure someone asked for a favor this afternoon , i wonder who that was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pugwash Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 favour? who me sir? naaaaaah Anyway it is a GL- our insurance company said so and it saved us £80 for the years insurance so who i am to contradict them! I have no idea what you are talking about re: unfinished projects. I don't need any more- i have quite enough as it is! AND i'll have you know that i did a bit of off roading in Challis' series at Bampton- which is now an unfinished project- there is a definte pattern here , oh and don't forget the noddy mobile, that's done a fair bit of off roading too! You can whine, but i 'ave still got the noisiest PAS system in the Southwest- you'll know when i'm coming round far in advance- give you a good oppotunity to hide as per usual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
