When i turn ac on, steering feels heavier
Why when i turn my AC on steering feels heavier? I bought my mini with bad a/c, i repair it, it was a leaking hose, then, first time i drive it with a/c i feel like my steering wheel is heavier, why this happen?

What's the condition of your drive belt? The belt drives the alternator, coolant pump, and the A/C compressor.
What's the level of your power steering fluid?
