Hi, i'm new to the forum i recently purchased a 1.5tdfor fuel consumption.
my other car is a fiat coupe 20vt.
can any one advise me on power steering as it's worse then a tank on the corners the steering is really heavy.
i dont have any knowledge with corsa's but im guessing it wouldn't be to hard to fit.
if any one has attempted this or knows how it can be done and what is needed please dont hessitate to comment.
Thanks for help in advance.

you would need a new steering rack and all the pipe work and the power steering fluid tank.if i were you before trying to do that i would make sure your tyres are pumped up correctly and get your tracking done

thanks is that all that would be required as i was looking on the net and i came across some eps or something but was unsure what it was lol
checked the tyre pressure and the tracking is fine. i went for 25psi front and 29 rear what the chart said but i havent got any owners manual for excact tyre pressures.
