is your steering wheel hard to turn?

is your steering wheel hard to turn when out of gear or idling?

whenever i go to a parking lot and park, i would step in the clutch and turn into the space and park. it felt really hard to turn, i had to turn it by force like there is no powersteering... so i had to rev it up a little to make it steer easy.

anyone having this problem? how to fix it?

Pop your hood and stand by the power steering pump which is directly behind the passenger headlight. Have someone else get in your car and turn the wheel. Listen and see if it whines and/or makes a strange noise. I had the same problem and it was the power steering pump.

If it is the power steering pump the dealer should replace it under warranty. They did for me.

It should NOT be hard to turn. Take it to the dealer.
