I have heard that there is a design "snag" with the 960 power steering that results in a hydraulic shudder when cornering at low speeds. There is a Volvo technical bulletin on it. My dealer told me that there is a modified pipe that corrects this (expensive) but they also suggested changing to another pump oil. My '95 960 is better than it was but I still get a shudder now and again.

Of course, you may have something completely different.
