Strange steering issue
2002 S60.
About a month ago, I was leaking power steering fluid and my mechanic said that the rack was leaking and needed to be replaced. Ouch. Some stuff happened and I wound up not driving the car much for the next month.
The car has always had, or so I remember, very light steering. When I picked it up after the repair, everything seemed normal and did the few times that I drove it.
However, leaving work yesterday, it seems like the steering got stiffer after I turned the wheel about 90 degrees. Slight turns and everything feels like I remember. First off, I'm wondering if I misremembered what the steering was like because I hadn't been driving it. Or . . . . is there something wrong with the new rack?
