    guys, pansin ko everytime na mag byahe ako at pag titignan ko yung PS reservoir ko eh parang kumukulo. then after sometime eh nababawasan pero nde nman nauubos. inspect ko wla naman tagas kahit saan pero yung reservoir lng talaga ang may traces ng fluid.

    palagi naman nasa tamang level lng ang pag lagay ko ng fluid. hanggang maximum level lng pag "cold".

    ano kaya problem nito?

    TIA!

    tingnan mo bro kung may mga bula. pag ganyan kasi may hangin yung PS system mo. dapat mableed yan ng maayos para puro fluid lang ang dumadaloy sa lining, walang air dapat.

    in my own experience din, nangyayari sa koche ko yan pag mababa ang menor. umiingay pa nga na parang garalgal ang tunog pag kakastart palang ng makina, at minsan kahit napainitan na ang makina at napatakbo na ang koche, ganun padin.

    in bleeding, ganito ginagawa ko:
    1. while engine is off, fill up PS tank up to proper level, leave the cap off to give way to outgoing air
    2. start engine
    3. full turn the steering wheel to the right, then to the left, repeat for several times while reving up the accelerator
    4. fill up PS tank again if level comes down
    5. repeat #3 and #4 until level is stable
    6. turn off engine ang check level again, refill if necessary
    7. put the cap back on
    8. turn on engine and use the car as normal
    9. check and observe for changes / improvements

    *** if all else fail, visit your friendly mechanic

    may possibility rin na barado yun steering box mo, imbes na daluyan ng fluid eh bumabalik lang at sinusuka palabas ng tank.

    hth. good luck bro

    another way to bleed if you are in a hurry is to lift the front pour PS fluid and turn the steering wheel left and right, this is with the engine off. baka seal lang ng cover may problema kaya may spill ng kaunti.

    tnx a lot jundogg & afrasay, will try it later.

    questions po ulit.. natural lang ba na parang kumukulo ang PS fluid? pag barado ang steering box ano solution dun? yung cover nga ng reservoir eh parang medyo maluwag baka isa din yun sa problem. saka pina check ng father ko, sabi eh oil seal daw, may oil seal ba ang PS? ksi aabutin daw ng 2k pag papaayos.

    tnx again guys!

    Madaming oil seal ang PS gearbox...mga brass washers, o-rings, may malaki and small diameters. Naglalaro sa 2-3k yun repair kits na oem, ewan ko lang sa Batmobile kung mayrun dito sa pinas. Pati piston ring na plastic mayrun din sa kit. Baka small bubbles lang yun, di naman kukulo ang PS, remember on straight driving fluid doesn't flow into the gear box hence almost no load sa engine, it is only when you turn the wheel that the fluid enters the worm gear and the pump starts to load the engine.

    baka may sira yung ps high pressure hose kaya umaapaw yung fluid mo.

    in case nagawa ko na pong isagad sa kaliwa't kanan ung manibela habang naka bukas ung lagyanan ng PS Fluid pero nag babasa pa rin, kun barado po mga hose may remedyo pa po ba? napansin ko po basa rin ung lagyanan ko ng PS Fluid.

    you might be better off having it checked if you can't figure out what the problem is. goodluck!

    wala na po yung basa sa takip at ibabaw ng reservoir, ang problem na lang po is yung ingay pag naka sakad sa kaliwa o kanan yung manibela. maluwag po ba belt pag ganun?

    if it is a squeaking sound then probably belt. kung ugong sound then malamang sira na the pump or the high pressure hose.
