[urq] Re: PS pump noise

[Brandon Rogers]

Guys-
well I re-checked my fluid level, turned the wheel back and forth lock to lock a couple times - but there still seems to be a noise (so eloquently described below) when the wheel is turned.  Any suggestions?

TIA-

Brandon

  Guys-
  as I posted last week, or earlier this week - can't remember - anyway my PS fluid started leaking a little faster.  On Wednesday evening I notice (CAUTION - lame attempt to phonetically spell a car noise) a "kwish kwish kwish" noise when I turn the wheel - virtually anything off dead center.  Not a groan, not a squeal.  So yesterday morning I started the car briefly to get out of the garage, then shut it down - pumped the brake pedal til it went hard - ~35 pumps,  Then opened up the PS fluid reservoir - it was about two inches from the top.  So I topped her off.  So I'm driving back from lunch today - same noise again.  Pump brakes til hard open reservoir.  It's overflowing.  I figured the noise was from low fluid....nope.  So what gives??  

  TIA for any thoughts and wisdom
