You’re the best! I thought I was going to need to replace my power steering pump… I replaced my alternator and then this noise popped up out of nowhere. You saved me all kinds of grief. Thank you!
Thats only helpful if thee is no longer an air leak causing the fluid to become aerated, other wise you can attempt in vain to bleed the air out of the fluid until the “Cows come home” but you wont get anywhere
Raise yr car, fill in PS w/ATF to safe level, turn the wheel L to R, do the same with running engine, repeat til all the bubbles are gone, noise should be gone too
U r welcome
I changed both accesory belts and never put the shroud back, and now I have the winding noise, do I have to put the shroud back or is there a way I can get away without installing it
Hi, Justin. I’ve tried to adjust the shroud but still there’s is noise mostly when the steering wheels is turned to the max in either of directions. (First I noticed the noise was when I was leaving parking spot moving backward.) Must I change the fluid? I understand that nothing else is required, isn’t it?
lol I was wondering why that bolt felt loose.. so i tightened it and the whines began.. now im here
Justin your a top man . Thanks mate .
I have a 2001 hyndai accent and it makes a loud shriking noise do i do the same thing you did?

Wow, easiest car fix ever. Thank you!
This fix is for air entering the system only, but a Power steering system can have other issues. If the pump is coming to a stop? is the belt loose?
Justin, I don’t have a fan shroud on my 2005 Legacy. It sounds like I need one. Wheres a good place to buy one?

Either one will work, Dextron is whats there form the Factory
the bracket may still be allowing some air in, might try loosening it and re tightening it to re set it

ATF DexIII or regular PS fluid

Thanks!
Just had timing belt changed and had this problem. Did what you said and worked great thanks
You probably still have aerated fluid, you may need to adjust the bracket and then replace the fluid as well
