About 2 weeks ago my power steering was making that whining sound so i filled it to the max and about a day later its making that whining sound. YES ITS ANNOYING. repeated the same thing above and it all leaked out and then the pump went out i suppose and the steering wheel was hard to turn. So i replaced it with another one my friend had laying around.
Same thing happened AGAIN but this time there was PS fluid all over the side. i didnt know what was going on. So i searched and i changed the hose from the resevior to the pump and changed out the O-ring out. I thought i fixed it from that minute because it worked fine for the rest of the day and night but when i go to drive this morning that damn whining sound came back and the fluid leaked out again so i filled more up to the max.
I then drove to work no problems and at lunch time i go to drive about 5 minutes later smoke is coming from under my hood. FLUID ALL OVER THE SIDE AGAIN!!! The whining sound was still there before i stopped to check . I turned the motor off and cleaned it all off again with engine degreaser and noticed my resevior EMPTY and when i went to go drive back to work there was no whining sound. Again the power steering was completely out like it was hard to turn again. I have no clue whats wrong with this shit.
does anyone have any suggestions? i take it my PS pump is completely burnt out again and there might be something more wrong.
