Hi Mandrake

Many thanks for your information, will act on this.

Do you have any thoughts on the power steering pump and how can I get round this annoying problem

Where on the pump is it leaking from?
Usually it leaks from the large hex that the metal suspension/brakes pipe screws into, this is about 79p to buy a new seal and can be fitted in situ.
The other place is the bell end seal, again not a lot to replace but best done with the pump off the car in a vice.
The pulley spindle can also leak, best take it to Pleiades for that.
