I just bought a used 2008 ML 550 with 109,000 mi.
When I drive real slow, ( entering my garage) and try to turn the steering wheel, it takes so much effort that it is almost impossible to turn.
What is the problem?
Thanks much,
Doug

My belt seems to be turning fine.
I'm told the power steering fluid "filter" can get dirty/clogged and is the best place to start.
If that doesn't do it, it "may" need a pump.
Mine actually worked OK in the really cold winter weather, but it's getting worse as it warms up again......
Whatever that means.
I am having the same problem on the same year make and model vehicle.... I was wondering what this might run to repair.
