Any GM Techs out there?? I have a 1998 Chevy Camaro-3.8L v6 (stock) and today my steering's been iffy. Yesterday it was fine, but i try to drive it today, and it's really hard to turn left or right.
Here's what I can tell you:
>No Recent accidents/dings/dents etc
>Snowing about 2 inches on the ground
>Got stuck on a bit of ice (normal for me)
>Wheel is loose (aka normal) when driving straight or soft curves
>Must force the wheel to turn left or right, very tight, like its stuck. >Much harder than it normally is to turn. (Vehicle does turn, but it needs more oomph at the wheel
>Checked my power steering fluid, its full
What is it? I thought at first its maybe because of the snow, but now I think its something else. Again, it drives normal when Im going straight or around soft curves. It kinda makes a sound when the car is idling and i turn the wheel.
Thanks for the help!! If you need anymore info, ask it and i'll put it in the additional details.
Also, if you suggest something needs repairing, could you give a guess-timate on how much it would be to fix? thanks!
To Christian: Power steering fluid is full. 5 bills! jesus that better not be it! I can do a fuel pump. lol.
If it's still bad tomorrow, I'll take it to my local mechanic (Closed today)
