Default Xc90 heavy steering

Hi

Having a problem with my 2006 XC90 where the steering feels very heavy whilst car is stationary - especially when getting to full lock. - Seems fine whilst driving.

Garage have said they can't find anything wrong but eveyone who drives the car notices the"heavy steering"

Anyone got ant bright ideas.

there are 2 types of steering,speed sensitive or normal.

either type should never feel heavy though.

Have you checked the power steering fluid level? It might be below minimum...
