Hey guys, every since i bought my 33. I always thought it was a normal thing that the left and right signal has to be turned off manually as it was an old car. Steering didnt feel so responsive (yet again thought it was normal)... but somethign weird happened today, went to a friends place and left the car out in the hot sun for a few hours. All of a sudden, when i started driving the car... the steering started vibrating (very abnormal for my car) a little everytime i move it... it felt better i guess... a little stiffer. The signal also turned itself off when i turned a corner (this is not normal for my vehicle)... had the car for almost a year now and i found this really odd that it suddenly "fixed itself". Happy about the "miricle" i guess, but if it were to somehow "break" again... would it be a simple fix?.. How would i go about doing so? (maybe a clean? replacement? repair?)

a better description of the vibration would help. does it happen at certain speeds, does it feel alignment related or pump related? when was the last time you checked your p/steering fluids and hoses?

as for the indicators, they should turn off themselves. would be a simple clean, replacement if it starts to happen again. just take the surroundings off and have a look how it works.

The vibration is something constant that happens at 0kph and 100kph, it only happens when i move the steering wheel in any way. If i constantly move the steering wheel, i will constantly feel the vibration. (very mild vibration) It shouldnt be the alignment, got alignment done rescently and well it the steering is still all good. Havent checked my p/steering fluids and hoses but have no idea how to do so w/o sending to mechanic. Shoudlnt be a concern should it?

does it make any noise while you turn?

pop your bonnet up, theres a reservoir bottle on the passengers side next to the suspension strut. unscrew the lid and you will see a level indiator stick thats undernieth the lid. put it on and take it off again to see your level. check your hose that connects to it to see if its leaking, its quite common.

see how you go with this.
