Hey Guys/Girls I have 323i coupe , and the power steering feels Odd.... and rather noisy I notice it 2day on way home its 2 dark to see ... I’m getting worried atm but it cud be the power S fluid. But not quite sure and my Air bag Light just came on for no Reason... .Any suggestions but be appreciative

I'd have a look at the steering fluid level.

as witeshark said, check the fluid level. if it's full your pump is going

Yes, PS fluid. I think the air bag light is unrelated.

Hey guys Cheers checkd fluid 2day its up 2 the Top.. so its Gotta be PS pump.. is there any way of Testing it otha than Driving it normal.. u know what i mean. lol before i begin 2look for an replacement.

Whats best a Brand new 1 or an 2nd hand one...

brand new, i put in a used one and 3 months later it's starting to go down. one way to really tell if it's bad is to turn your wheel all the way to the left and the right and the pump will start to get louder
