wwerrrraahhhhh....nnnngg...nngggg Is this the sign of a bad P/S pump? 900

1997 965

sure sounds bad. that, and I have no power steering at the moment.

looking down I see that the return hose seems to be leaking (that would explain my messy driveway!) pretty well. taking the cap off yields a foamy mixture not unlike a nice daiquiri mix. mmm. but, no, not so good.

i siphoned the remaining fluid out and poured in new, to no avail. still whirring, in fact even worse so with new fluid.

the steering has been suspect on this car since I bought it summer 2009. now, i think i know why.

so, pull and find another?

what think the board?
