Loss of steering

Featured Replies

Just had the fright of my life when my impreza r decided to completely lose all steering. Not just power steering but all steering. It came back and I managed to just dodge the curb but then did it again when driving straight. Anyone else experienced this or have any idea what it is? Thanks


never had that - to loose all steering leads me to believe your rack has broken some how, if the pump had gone the steering would be heavy but still there, some teeth missing somewhere and knowing how robust the rack is I would suggest pinion has failed

silver lining - upgrade to 15+ rack for faster steering ratio

Rack is in tact that was one of the first things I checked. It threw me with the way it went its nothing I've every come across like you say I'd have no power steering but it'd still turn if the pump was at fault. I'm dragging it in to my garage tomorrow to have a proper look. I have the urge to do some tinkering at the minute so will look in to your suggestion thank you.
