Whilst turning the car around the other day, it made a quite loud squealing noise for about 3-5 seconds. (the kind you associate with loose fan belts and power steering) It has since done this another two times, accompanied at least once with a smell like something is burning or getting hot. I've checked the power steering fluid, which is fine. Then on the way home tonight, it made the noise whilst driving (in a straight line) but it also hesitated slighty, it was as if for a second someone was pulling the car back as I was driving it along. Nothing became of it, it didn't loose power, sqeal, or anything?
I have also just cleared a fault code, which showed itself by the glow plug warning light coming on, apparently caused by a brake light shorting out, just incase that has any bearing on the above.
Got a 360+ mile trip coming up, so would like piece of mind driving up!
