Here's a question-power steering.

I think the correct size tyres for my 15'' rims are 195 55 15.I recently fitted 205 50 15,could this cause a leak in my power steering fluid due to slightly more pressure on the steering to to wider tyres?

had the 1.6 litre engine before with 205/45/16, which I have today with the 2.0 litre engine - these are shipped by PUG Germany

Unlikely in my opinion Sickboy.

Careful though, if the leak is from your power steering pump it could cost you a new alternator too! See this thread..

I'd get it repaired promptly - a stitch in time and all that...
