Default Hard Steering

I know this has been discussed before, but I can't find it.
Problem area is a 1994 Hatchback, purchased used, it has always been stiff steering, not to the point where it is difficult to turn the wheel, but to the point where if in a tight spot, hard to get out of.
I like to be able to "feel the road", but feel this is a little much. Shocks are ok---another sore point, don't seem to absorb any bumps. Sorry I got distracted, don't see any leaks from the steering reservoir, linkage is tight.
Ant suggestions or helpful ideas? Thanks, Wine and Roses

No answer but similar issue. Just looked at a 1996 and the steering also felt a little stiff. Haven't owned a C4 for quite a few years and can't remember this from my last one.
