The most common cause for power steering failure on an Audi 80 is a damaged or worn out power steering pump. It is recommended to have it checked and potentially replaced by a certified mechanic. In the meantime, check the power steering fluid levels and make sure there are no leaks.

S

Another possible cause could be a broken serpentine belt. Without a functioning belt, the power steering pump cannot operate properly. Have it checked and replaced if necessary.

In rare cases, a faulty steering rack or steering column could be to blame for power steering issues. Have it inspected and replaced if needed by a qualified technician.
