My power steering is gone...

Power steering gone on 2008 model. Passed NCT & immediately after steering funny. Gone completely now. Motor gone. Is car just scrap? Is it possible to get used or reconditioned motor? New one costs 1500€. Thanks

Our answer:

Hi Toni,

You've not mentioned the make or model so we can't give specific advice, but I would suggest that you first of all get the car along to a good mechanic or auto electrician with a view to repairing the motor/pump. If that's impossible then it's time to trawl the internet for second-hand units. Scrapyards/breakers are a good place to start.
