so you didn't actually buy a NEW car, just a low mileage used car?
that's a nice looking car, congrats.

Sure it may be used but so are all RX8's. It's hard to find a good sports car. The FRS/BRZ are over priced lemons, lots of quality problems including the engine.
My dilema is .. What do I do when the new RX7 comes out?
RX8
G8 GT
Saturn Sky Redline
Which or how many of them do I sell?

Well power steering went out, drove to play tennis with Keith and when I left to start it, it was gone. The fluid is full. After my leaky coolant overflow hose I guess the cables finally took all they could. I am going to start with this and see if it solves the problem. If not maybe I have to get a new harness but lets hold off on that right now.
What was Tim's issue when it went out?

Loren: that's the best thing to do, start with cleaning them and see if that helps.
it's really a 50/50 shot.
for some people it fixes the problem only temporarily
some it fixes it for good
others it doesn't do a thing and you end up with a new harness.

Well down in Tustin I start the car up and the power steering is gone again.grid lock all the way back to rancho.100+ degrees and I actually see the car temp go up towards the right side of the guage so I shut off the ac till I get back to the office. I park in the office shade and POP the hood for two hours and it drives home fine.

loren: I think it might be wise to just replace the harness at this point.
have you flushed out your radiator in the last few years?
