Had a question to the general population regarding the following post: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------- My poor little 80 has recently developed a small and very inconsistent leak which by all appearances seems to be power steering fluid. Because the leak is usually very small (only a thin spot the diameter of a coffee cup or smaller), and only happens occasionally (once or twice a week, regardless of driving conditions, temperature (10 - 103 degrees F. in last 3 weeks). The biggest problem is that I can't seem to locate the source. Occasionally, I get a *pop* (not CV joints though) when the wheels are turned full either left or right, *however* this only seems to happen when moving and more specifically when backing and turning out of driveway/parking spaces. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------- Mark, my dealer told me that the "pop" is normal on our cars 80/90/CoupeQ when backing out, turning.... All: BUT is this power steering leak also a problem for our Coupes? (also 80/90s) I thought that it was only characteristic of the 5000 series!
