Hello!

Post by Jim2202 »

hello everyone, I am new to this site, I'm running 2x 2003 Coupes, both 2ltr models, mine and my wife drives the other, had them for nearly a year and love them to bits, even the little issues they throw my way every now and then. I am a Motorcycle mechanic by trade, but sometimes struggle for an answer on cars.
Both my Coupes are different to drive mine is quite refined on acceleration, with light steering and a light clutch, my wifes coupe is heavy clutch, heavy steering and quite an aggressive power delivery. There is about 6 months difference in age, mine being the newer one, my main concern is the steering being heavy, I have not checked any fluid levels as yet, worried it might be the power steering pump, any ideas?
Regards Jim
