I have a slow power steering leak that I’m sure changing the cv joints will help out. I’m considering replacing the radiator when I do the timing belt and water pump so maybe I’ll do the power steering pump also! Yeah most people would say I’m insane but I’d rather do all this major stuff and pretty much not have to worry about serious repairs for years.
