The driver needs to change the oil somewhere every couple of years, or when the indicator reaches 80-90 thousand kilometers. You can independently check the quality of the fluid. If it is red, then all is well. Black or brown - it's time to change the oil.

    • Oil level is incorrect. Make sure that the fluid in the tank GUR enough. If the driver sees that there is not enough fluid, then you need to refill it. However, before that you need to figure out where the previous oil went.

    • Faulty steering rack. To confirm or refute this, you need to conduct a checkup. If the cause of the buzz in the power steering is really a problem with the rail, then perhaps it needs to be replaced. It is not cheap, but do not get very upset.
