Steering issues?

[elniniol999]

I hit a speedbump hard the other day so got the underside checked out. When the car was jacked up on ramp the mechanic showed me how much force he had to use to turn the wheels by pushing them whilst it was running. It needed some force then would ping to opposite lock and the same on other side. Whilst he couldn't see any issues, he wasn't sure whether thisnwqs a normal twingo characteristic or not. The steering feels normal from behind the steering wheel. Anyone know if this is normal or not?

Cheers

whilst it is running, trying to move the wheels, you will have to overcome the power steering.

Perhaps the mechanic thought it was hydraulic power steering?

Sounds like it. Took it to another mechanic who said no issues. He did point out that the silenced had a slight hole in the welded seam. Anyone know.how long the warranty is on exhaust?

It's not just a drain hole in the exhaust is it ?

Didn't know exhausts had a warranty as they are classed as consumables.... correct me if I'm wrong......

I know with most major manufacturers they are covered for the first year.
