The steering wheel on my 2004 FX35 (55K miles) seems more difficult to turn than any other car with power steering that I drive. It doesn't feel like anything is binding, just weak power assist. I had the rack replaced (leaking) under warranty about 9 months ago, but I'm out of warranty now. I was hoping that the power steering pump would have some sort of a pressure adjustment, but after reading through the FSM it doesn't appear that there is anything like that. It mentions doing a pressure relief test, but if it fails the suggested next step is pump disassembly and repair. Is there a kit available for this? Do you think that it will reduce my steering effort? Thanks.
