Default S-Type Steering Wheel Stutters

I have a '98 S-Type. At slow speeds like when I'm turning out of a parking space the steering wheel stutters a little. I've mentioned this to the dealer several times and each time he tells me it's normal. My factory warranty is expiring soon so I want to make sure they know what they're talking about.

Thank you,

Stephen

At $12.00 for the small amount of majic potion, it has cured steering wheel noise, cooing and slight hesitations (stutters).

Also possibilities the rack or steering pump.

Good luck

If there's no down side to it, I'll try it. Thanks.

BTW, Do you know the part/item number so I ask for the right thing?
