Steering damper seizing up?
johnpirate:
As some of you may remember a while ago I replaced my steering box on the 300 Tdi .The pump seems ok but the steering is heavy when the vehicle is stationary.I was crawling around today and the damper looks rotten I would say the oil has been weeping away.And I think I saw rust on the ram.Do they seize up which would explain my problems.

I've got on ethat's been stood and the steering is very heavy. That said you are asking a lot to be able to move the steering at all when it's not moving, you'll wear it out doing that.
johnpirate:
My 200 you could move the steering whilst staionary no probs.This thing its as though its got no power at slow speeds .I struggle to get out of the cul-de-sac where I live when there are other vehicles are on the street.
