Hi Malcolm,

Yesterday I had tested car(fully tested) after changed strut a couple day ago.
Long running with bump against big hump and bumpy road,cornering the car through long bent road and went to tight corner that needs using steering full lock left n right within faster turn....

Noticed front absorber bit bouncy when through high speed at big hump. Also put absorber stopper rubber type(use from Toyota AE80), before my mechanic didn't put any stopper. Is it the problem?

No sinking at front(only bit when tight parking) while cornering and feel soft means front works. Looks solved already...

Low pressure light appear when fully turn the steering or when make U-turn.

It is internal leaking of Pressure Regulator?

my last post was refering to a possible fix far the fast tick rate,

may be the low presure lamp is comming on with hard lock because the pump belt needs tightening, or the tank filters need cleaning,
