it happened on track generally. Steering would lock, mid corner, preventing one from turning the wheel in order to make the corner.
by turning, and returning the wheel, I would be able to make the corner.
twice this happened, twice BMW replaced the pump + rack under warranty. after the 2nd time, I fitted a cooler, as the cause was the fluid was boiling.
If you've had problems with your power steering, I suggest you ask your BMW (assuming they did the work) to replace the entire system - if the pump fails, the rack will be ruined too, a it will have run dry.
good luck.
