Steering suddenly gone heavy

My 2005 GT4 seems to have developed heavy steering without me really noticing anything unusual. It's not a daily driver, it's an occasional driver so maybe I didn't notice,

but it's gone from the usual fairly light power steering to noticeably heavy steering. I've checked the power steering fluid reservoir and that doesn't seem to have moved, it's still on the middle marker so it's neither high nor low.

 

I did wonder if the power steering pump may be the culprit, but my local garage has said they don't think so. They had a quick look at the car and suggested it's probably the steering rack that needs replacing. I'm not sure how you go about determining which part is the culprit? If it is the steering rack, is anyone selling good condition used ones?

 

Cheers

Paul
