Hi Guys,

I`ve brought myself a 04, 2l hdi vtr estate. The steering seems quite heavy compared to other cars I have owned.I`ve checked the tyre presures. Is this normal, is the steering heavy ?.

Also the car seems to be losing fluid, which looks like power steering fluid.............

No the C5 steering is generally light.

Have you checked the power steering pump, is the leak from that area?

Bear in mind , the power steering fluid is also the hydraulic suspension fluid (Citroen LDS). Have you checked the level of the suspension fluid reservoir (next to the coolant reservoir, under the black plastic cover). You need to put the suspension in its lowest level to check this.
