There are three major parts of your Mercedes steering rack that can go bad. First is your Mercedes power steering pump. One main reason a Mercedes power steering pump might go bad would be a result of the system leaking fluid. High pressure may cause seals to leak including the high-pressure Mercedes power steering hose as well. This may result in a loss of Mercedes power steering fluid. The Mercedes power steering fluid acts as a lubricant for the Mercedes power steering pump so when this fluid gets too low you may start to hear a grinding sound. Soon all steering power would be lost. |
