Steering lumpy

Hi All

Just noticed my steering is lumpy/notchy when i turn it goes about 80 degrees then like a stiff lump before it seem free again. checked the obvious cant see any leaks and the resovoir is mid way between min and max.

does any one have any suggestions before i take it to garage?

Thanks

Lower steering column Thumbs Up give it some wd40 at the uj and it will temporarily help it. Needs replacing. Thumbs Up Bodsys Brake Bible

HI. you will find the UJ under the bonnet. its part of the bottom steering column. and joins onto the rack. the best way to get at it is by taking the bash plate of underneath held on by 10 bolts. Thumbs Up
