I have a 2014 Audi A6 and recently noticed that my power steering is not functioning properly. It feels stiff and makes strange noises when I turn the wheel. What steps can I take to diagnose and fix the issue?
ReplyFirst, check the power steering fluid level and top it up if necessary. If that doesn't solve the issue, you may have a leak in the power steering system, which should be checked by a mechanic. In the meantime, avoid hard turns to prevent damage to the pump and rack system.
A common cause of power steering problems in Audi A6 models is a faulty steering rack. You can check this by inspecting the rack for any physical damage or leaks. If you're not familiar with car mechanics, it's best to take your car to a professional for a proper diagnosis and repair.
If your power steering is intermittent or completely non-functional, it could be an issue with the electrical components of the system, such as the power steering control module or fuse. Have a mechanic use a diagnostic tool to scan for potential error codes and troubleshoot accordingly.
