My mini cooper is five this September. I am experiencing problems with the power steering - not working - car is very difficult to steer. Is this a common problem? It's going into the dealership on Monday for tests.

yes Power steering failure is relatively common on MINI as is the whine on full lock

never experienced the former myself thankfully. Good luck with it
