MONDEO STEERING PROBLEM

[anthony25]

ello all i have a 2004 mondeo tdci and ive noticed when i start the car in the morning or when its cold etc if i turn the steering wheel from dead centre slightly to the left or right it feels like theres a slight sticking resistant point but once past it its fine....after driving for 5 minutes or so its gone completely any ideas thanks...????..its done 78k miles also

Check the level of the fluid in the power steering. If it's a bit low you'll notice an initial problem but it will disappear once the remaining fluid has been pumped around the system.

Has the Power Steering been leaking? has the fluid level gone right down? does the steering wscreech when turned? Power steering belt slack? have you the correct fluid in the P/S/System?
