my 2000 ka,also is leaking at the moment,when i purchased the car in september 08,it had just had its power steering pump/2 front suspension arms and steering rack replaced im worried too as could be leak from power steering,when steering the wheel it is making a funny rubbing kind of noise.could be costing alot of money,ive heard ka's are prone to this problem.

Hi thank for the reply but have tried the stop leak fluid but with no avail!! The leak is very bad needs filling up nearly every day!

Hi, my ka (since sold) leaked from the pump but it is difficult to see in this area! I found that adding fluid containing stop leak (stp) did improve matters and a new pump was avoided. It seems quite a common problem
