As mentioned, the steering, after first starting the car, is super hard to turn, and shudders a bit. Once it has been running for several minutes it does improve and drives Ok, however I have noticed it is getting stiffer more recently.
I tried the replacing of fluid exercise using a turkey baster to remove old and add new fluid. This did not seem to make a difference. The old fluid did not look particularly dirty in any event.
Would apptreciate your thoughts. She's been a reliable lady for a long time.
If it is the pump that is failing, can I recondition it somehow, or is it a replacement exercise.
Surrounded by various different nice car models in Germany but still fascinated by the Presea, Bluebird U13 and the Mark II.. The first cut is the deepest.. Baby I know, the first cut is the D he he he
What is the deal with the car market these days!!
I went to check on a Jimny, 2016 2nd owner and he's hellbent on 6.8mil for the thing,
approx 50000km+ mileage
Needs tyres, rear shock absorbers leaking and there has been an aircon repair as well.
(Approx 400k LKR in pending repairs making the total 7.2mil)
Whereas a brand new one can be imported between 8.2-9.5 given the grade and winning bid.
I ponder what the mentality is of the people of this country...🤣
