Rarely. Last year my work truck slid off a forest road into the ditch (in snow), and working to get the truck out of the ditch I held the steering against the stop for a while. The bypass in the pump stuck open, which killed not only the steering assist but the brake assist (it is a diesel truck). The pump had to be replaced. Other than that I have not heard of it doing any damage.

i agree with all the experts when u turn the wheel the power steering pump takes power from the engine so it has 2 rev up some 2 creat more power so the engine stays running at a selected speed

I would think that somewhere along the line, a mechanism from the steering column is touching against the accelerator cable. Get someone to look under the bonnet while you turn the wheel and check the carb surroundings for the cable and link.

this is because you have power steering and the pump which is briven by a belt off of a pulley connected to your engine is have to power your steering, dry steering or turning with out movement will wear your tyres out and more impotantly your steering rack and pump, so dont do it, it is always best to steer under movement even slow less strain on the pump and rack.

Most cars have engine load sensors a switch that detects powersteering load in the pressure side hose and that switch close that causes the engine control to make more RPM'S. There is no problem with that Vauxall.

This is normal it`s just the power steering pump taking more power from the engine.

The pcm boosts the engine idle due to increased load.

because it has power steering it has a sencer that when you apply a load it takes the idle speed up to cope with the load!
