Hi any advice please,
a couple of months ago i noticed the steering creaking at low speeds (sounded like Tyre scrub but rolling so cant be) was always ok on startup but came a bout after 30 minute drive, asked a local garage to have a look up on the ramp, they couldn't see anything wrong, other than a split gator to a lower ball joint. after that it didn't seem to be as bad. Today after 30min drive home all of a sudden steering is making a terrible grinding noise, at first i though something was rubbing on the tyre, so i pulled up to stationary and it was still doing it if the steering wheel was anything other than dead centre. limped it the rest of the way home, when i have opened the fluid reservoir it looks low and foamy, when the foam subsides it will probably be very low. so presuming there is a leak i have had a rummage around with the phone camera, think i have found a/the leak, does this look like the rack of the pressure or return hose?
