Cold Weather and Power Steering

2613 Views 2 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  brendog84cj8
My power steering was working great but now the weather is below 0 without windchill and it seems like i've lost all power steering at low speeds. Basically if I give it gas and turn, it seems to have about 80% power steering and if i'm doing parking lot maneuvers I've got about 0-10% power steering, Any Ideas?

Mine does the same thing and I dont have any problems. I live in Montana and it has been really cold. Needless to say, even after warming up the truck before leaving for work in the morning it still takes a mile or two down the road for the steering/tranny/ ect to stop feeling "sluggish". Just a by product of really cold temps, in my opinion.
