So last night on my way home I spotted a big and empty parking lot. You probably could guess what happened next lol

Anyway I busted a few burnouts and topped it off with a 1080. After all the fun was over I noticed something not right with my steering wheel, I guessed I had busted my power steering pump. When I was turning it was hard to turn the steering wheel at slow speeds and made super loud noises.

Ended up going to Walmart and topped off the fluid all the way and it was still doing the same thing unfortunately

Check the fluid this morning and it has leaked it out a tiny tiny bit but it seems like most of the build up is around the resivour.

Has anyone ever had to change the pump on their c55? Does it sound like the pump needs to be replaced? Thanks

Unfortunately, it's common on these cars to have the PS pump go out when doing donuts; i.e. revving the engine high while having the steering wheel turned all the way to lock

You see I had a feeling that it was getting bad cause when I would make turns on bumpy roads I would hear power steering noises so I guess i ended its life with the donuts. Crazy how weak c55's are compared to the 32's. My c32 took so much beatings that I'm surprised the engine never dropped to the ground. It seems that the more I beat my 55, the more problems I have...
