Hi Guys

I have a 2005 174/T5 Kombi which is a great van appart from those niggly problems. Leaking windows in the sliding doors, on the 4th pair so far.
The latest problem is the power steering resovoir fluid level increasing and forcing past the filler cap , it looks as if engine oil has contaminated the power steering fluid. Has anyone come across this one.

I reckon the seals are gone on the power steering pump
i changed the water pump on mine a wee while ago an if the power steering pump is same setup (i know it gear driven) then thats probably what it is or its worn out:mad:

Managed to get it sorted out by the dealer, as still has a couple of months to go on the warranty, wondering what else is going to show itself after the warrenty runs out!! The windows are a pain in the butt, think we are on about our sixth set!! And they still leak !!
