Hi Guys
I have a weird issue that has never happened before.
I don't know if its because the car has been left undriven for a few days or not but... I tried to drive the car to work yesterday and everything was fine for a while...and thenI realised the steering had become heavy. It was still driveable but just very heavy and heavier at lower speeds when cornering. Then I noticed the HICAS light come on and stayed on.
Now, the last time the HICAS light came on it was just a question of topping up the power steering fluid, which I learnt from this site. so I did the same thing, I topped up the fluid (it didn't need very much) and I test drove the car for a while. Again, everything seemed fine, and whne I tried to make my work the steering again became heavy. So i drove the car home again and left it there.
Have I developed a leak somewhere? Could it be a sensor? I'm not sure
I might just take it to the local garage I use and get them to check. apart from that the car drives fine, starts without any problems whatsoever.
If anyone else has this issue then I would really like to know, and thanks
