Power Steering Issue
#1
a couple days ago a friend of mine's power steering has started giving him problems. its a 2007 zx4 with about 50k on it. virtually bone stock. was putting an intake in for him yesterday and checked everything out, power steering fluid is full but it smells "burnt" :blink: and im no mechanic, but my guess is, his ps pump/motor w/e is shot. first question, is this common? i know i have seen a thread or two about it leaking etc but not like this. he pretty well has no PS right now. he will be bringing it to the local dealer tomorrow but im curious if this is a common problem especially with only 50k on it and mostly highway at that. second question, any ideas to why this sort of thing would of happened?
