Thanks oldnell. Just spent an hour or so looking at a selection of posts on here and pretty sure that it's either the power steering pump, or the pump and loom. Unfortunately the car is out of warranty, and as it's low milage (23K now) BMW paid for the caliper above. Not sure if they will be too keen to stump up for a pump as well, but I'll give my dealer a ring tomorrow as it won't hurt to ask. Incidently, I found an excellent post from richg40 (sorry, I've copied the text but not made a note of the thread) explaining how to change the pump, so if I can't get any financial assistance I'll go down the DIY route. |
