I was driving my 01 disco and i noticed when i was at a stop and i turned my steering wheel to the left it made a wierd noise like it was out of steering fluid i turned i to the right and no noise i took it to the landrover dealer and they said by just hearing it i needed and new power steering box at $1000 does this sound right any possible thing i could do? Thanks oh by the way i have 90,000 miles on my rig

 

Sounds like they were having a slow week and just wanted to make up for it.
How long has it been since you changed your steering fluid?

I havnt since i bought it about 6 months ago. I will!!

 

Might want to send me a private message with your tele number, I'll call you and walk you thru flushing out the system .

My 2000 Discovery was making that noise when taking a fast corner. The fluid level was a little low. I just added some more fluid and the noise is gone.

When you change you fluid, make sure to use only power steering fluid or better yet, synthetic power steering fluid and add a bottle of Lucas power steering additive to help clean up the valves.
By the way, do you know how to change the fluid?
