#1 of 9 Power fluid check by brgoff007 Nov 25, 2006 (8:44 am)
How do I check the power steering fluid on my son's 2000 Regal? I can't find a resevoir anywhere. Do I need to take it to a shop? Replies to this message: buickboy92 (Nov 26, 2006 1:00 am) brgoff007 (Nov 26, 2006 8:34 am) brgoff007 (Nov 26, 2006 11:47 am) and 2 more...

Replying to: buickboy92 (Nov 26, 2006 1:00 am) I looked a little harder and found it. It was in the back lower than most resevoirs. I needed a longer funnel to reach it.   Thanks Replies to this message: brgoff007 (Nov 26, 2006 11:47 am) mooseburg (Dec 02, 2006 8:54 pm) brgoff007 (Dec 03, 2006 11:42 am)

Replying to: brgoff007 (Nov 26, 2006 8:34 am) I am still having a problem with the steering. It turns easily to the left, but hard like no power steering to the right. Any ideas what is wrong? Replies to this message: mooseburg (Dec 02, 2006 8:54 pm) brgoff007 (Dec 03, 2006 11:42 am)

Replying to: brgoff007 (Nov 26, 2006 11:47 am) The reason you're experiencing a problem with hard turning one way and not the other is due to the steering rack assmebly spool valve. Correcting this would be to replace the steering rack assembly. Replies to this message: brgoff007 (Dec 03, 2006 11:42 am)

Replying to: mooseburg (Dec 02, 2006 8:54 pm) I just found that out from the shop yesterday. Thanks alot I appreciate the response. They estimated me a cost of $1000 for them to fix. Needless to say my buddy and I can do it for a lot less. Again, thanks for the response!!
#7 of 9 Regal Front Suspension Heigth by ehowells May 07, 2007 (10:20 am)
I have a 1998 Regal GS. The front suspension seems to be very low. How can I adjust the heigth of the front suspension?
#8 of 9 Bad suspension by gsboost Aug 03, 2007 (5:25 pm)
I have a 1999 regal GS. Every time i take a somewhat hard left turn or just hit to big of a bump the tire scrapes the inside of the wheel well. It is starting to even cut into the tire. I had the strut replaced but that did absolutely nothing. I think it might be that the tires that came with the car when i bought it weren't stock and might be too big. Any suggestions on what to replace or do?
#9 of 9 Power steering and tie rods by arm51 Mar 31, 2008 (9:53 pm)
Is is possible to "bottom out" once to cause "major damage" to the power steering and tie rods? Enough damage where they "need to be replaced immediately"? This concerns a 1997 Buick Regal with roughly 145,000 miles on the odo.
