Was out in the .:R lastnight and after a few blast down some lanes i lost Powersteering at low speeds very hard to turn the wheel but when im at normal speeds it was fine, anyway brought it straight home and put her to bed in the garage, rang VW Assistance as when i bought the car i got 12 months Warranty/Breakdown Assistance too (good for a mk4 53 plate 30k on the clock) anyway when i came down tp put her on the drive this morning i came back in and there was a Patch of oil on the floor in the drive at the front of the car, light brown couldnt smell anything.

So im just sat waiting for the qualified VW technitian to come out, pain in the arse as im waiting to go work aswell.

Thats what i thought at first untill i put my hand in the oil and it was black, is powersteering fluid the same colour as engine oil?

Its at VW now anyway so should be getting sorted :) Just cant wait to get her back, the 105bhp TDi golf is amazingly slow hehe although ALOT better or derv than my .:R im getting 480mile to a tank of Town driving and i dnt even think im driving it properly still drivin like im in a petrol car.

Thanks for the replies, (maybe if im lucky VW will put a new Engine/Gearbox in for me so its fresh as a daisy lol)
