Robbie Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 2004 meriva Power stearing is a fault with this car I am well aware of .I have had this problem for over 2 years now but learnt to put up with it. I Have changed battery. Trouble is now its happening a lot more.Will changing the stearing column fix the issue? And has anyone got a guide price what it would cost? They are such nice cars but not sure if it would be worth doing due to the age Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vauxhall Owners Club Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 A steering column may fix the issue but it would cost a lot and if you can put up with it for a while longer then may be the best bet If the issue is with the electric power steering intermittently working on start up but having to start a couple of times for it so start working then this is usually battery related and a better quality or more powerful battery tends to resolve the issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamh31 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Hi Robbie - I have just signed up so this is my first post - My Meriva power steering motor finally failed at New Year. I found a company in Derbyshire who took it in and reconditiioned it with a lifetime warranty for about £250 all in. Check out https://www.ecutesting.com/ It took me an evening to extract the motor and the column (they both need to be sent) and a little less to put them back together. Happy to offer more info if helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
