Hi Gents, 1st things 1st, a very Happy New Year to you all!!

Im having an intermittent issue with the B200. Sometimes when idle the power steering seems to make a very strange grinding rattling noise. Sometimes you can see the steering wheel on its own slightly. Now as its intermittent i took it to the dealer and sods law it didnt do it. So now i drive home and guess what it does it.

Any ideas what it can be? Got an indie to star the car and no error codes appeared apart from a few that seemed old. He cleared them and nothing came back.

While driving the steering does feel a bit vague hence why I think its the steering rack. If it is the dealer wants best part of £2000 just for parts as its an electric rack and motor system.

Any advice?

Cheers
