I am inviting comments and advice from readers etc about persistent power steering oil leakages with repeated allied belt failures on my 1999 S80 2.5TD Saloon ; any owner/dealer etc out there with similar experiences?

My Power Steering decided to stop working yesterday afternoon, on a London Gyratory system - fun place to happen. Managed to make it home, but it was hard work - especially parking.
Mine's an S80 2.5TD Auto 1999 with about 185000 on the clock. I've checked, and all the fluid seems to have gone, the pipes beneath the tank are definitely "greasy" so I'll have to clean them off to see where it's come out. Then get the right fluid. Ian |

in both your cases i strongly suspect you'll find it's the fluid reservoir that's leaking. a known problem on all P2 platform cars.
a new one will cost around £30 inc vat from your dealer |
