Default Steering problem
I don't know if this has been posted anywhere but i thought i would ask.

When i turn to the right, it feels as though there is no power steering. It is getting worse and worse each time I drive the S. It did it once or twice before but now it does it all the time Yet when I turn to the right, it feels totally fine?

So can anyone help me or know what is wrong?

I meant turn 'left' it feels fine...

I thought our power steering was electronic too? I'm live on the Northside of Brisbane.

Im not sure if this might be related, but have a look at your tires to see if they have air? or suspension maybe..

You'll have to forgive Vuey, he doesn't actually own an S2000. His wife won't let him.

S2000s have Electronic Power Steering and no hydraulics (or hydrolics) or fluid to top up.

BOOM !!! haha.

If you're in need to get it sorted soon, can't recommend HondaCare at Sumner Park enough... just get on the Western Freeway and its right near Jindalee.

Otherwise... see if one of the other Bris guys pipe up to help. Some very knowledgeable s2000 owners in Bris....not me
