i drover the car to my garage... and next morning i left to work i noticed that the steering was stiff.
 
when i turn left its stiff but when it goes over 90 degreess its normal and then again next 90 degree is stiff and so on.  
 
power steering is working fine and the oil is ok...no leaks and no strange noises.

Ah,    I misunderstood, Cool   one or two things   ,  if you think the   steering rack  is fine  then  maybe the   belt  is slipping at  low revs, could be the  lower  wishbone  ball  joints, track rod end ball joints,  check  for   play  or a  split  in the rubber boots,   mc pherson  strut top bearings  may be  dry,  broken  coil spring , Etc.      
Have you even checked the tyre pressures ? Kiss
