I sold an 85 300 turbo ~2 years ago. The new owner has come back to me for a warranty claim!


Looks like ps line has ruptured and lost most of the ps fluid. The car lost all steering assistance. I cut off the leaking section of hose and refilled w/ steering fluid (non MB) and all works fine but the pump makes ugly noises at idle (similar to a bad hood vibration) and quiets down as soon as rpms rise above idle.
Is the pump going to self distruct soon?

Never sell an old car to an aquaintance!
