  1. Ok, guys. from all data i have found, if I get it right - in 3L lupos there are no HYDRAULIC power steering. It has two options: no power steering at all or electro-MECHANICAL (not HYDRAULIC, but MECHANICAL). So... ...these parts I don't need anymore. http://www.volkspage.net/technik/ssp/ssp/SSP_225.pdf So, putting this kind of steering looks simple, only problem i can see by document in the link, 12 page, scheme - how to get Road speed signal from control unit. Any ideas? I cant find lupos 3L Control Unit wiring diagram. Maybe there is connection for this kind of signal. For warning lamp maybe possible to avoid Control Unit and put simple lamp. People, who are good in electronics could tell is this possible at all. My skills are not in electronics category, so I'm in the dark alley again. What are your thoughts, guys? Am I thinking the right direction?
  2. In any case if its manual or it is auto, engine still always running, no?. Engine stops, when ECO mode is on and brake pedal is pushed. But if only this would be problem we can drive without ECO mode, actually we don't use it anyway. And also when engine stops running during ECO mode, that means we are standing still and don't need manoeuvering. I'm interested is power steering will live with this engine? I know that power steering in lupo is electro-hydraulic. How it works? Does it need to be wired with lupos brains(cars computer, dont know actually, how it calls right in english) or it just need to be powered only by battery? and... ... are these parts can be fitted on my engine without drastic changes? I mean, are engines in lupos without pwr steering and with pwr steering are the same, and with the same places for mountings, fittment and etc.? If I get you question right, your problem doesnt fit me, because in my lupo there is no power steering. :/ Also, maybe i can get some lighter steering with what i have now? Maybe my steering can be lubricated somewhere and that could help even a little? Again, thanks in advance for anyones help. I know, that my questions kind hard to answer, but power steering parts aren't cheap, and i want to know is it possible to do this "project" before buying any parts, which appears can be not fitted in my car... :/
  3. Hello everyone, My girlfriend bought Lupo 3L 1.2 TDI. 2000 y. Problem is that steering in slow speed or parking is hard even for me. Does it has to be like this? If not, where can be problem? Also, seller told that in this model there is no power steering. Is it possible to put power steering from other lupo model to this? Thanks in advance
