GM does have a TSB on cold weather operation. When the fluid is really cold it becomes thick and will cause extremely high pressures in the system. Those high pressures can cause leaks or even damage such as blown hoses or broken pumps. Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved. mustang55373 New User Feb 22, 2015, 9:21 PM Post #3 of 4 (1510 views) Re: power steering problem Sign In I'll check the pressure and hoses tomorrow and let you know thank you!

Hey - if 15 below zero is new to you (many this year) run engine till heater works and temp gauge shows part warmed at least. Sucks for those trying to leave in a hurry you need time as stone cold is when stuff breaks as well as super hot days conversely, T   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
