Hi all just registered onto your site. I am having a problem with my 2001 passat1.9 TDi steering. When I am on a tight lock I get a screeching noise. I have checked under the bonnet and found the tensioner jumping and belt flaping when on full lock at idle. I have removed the tensioner assembly and found the damper bolt almost worn through. Replaced complete assembly and replaced both AC and PAS/ALT belt. Tested again and still have the same problem. I have checked the PAS pump but could find no fault. Is there a pressure valve in the rack system:1zhelp:
