Gloyale Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Are you iusing the correct fluid. Dex/Merc ATF? if you put regular *power steering* fluid in it, the clear stuff, it will make them leak and whine terribly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVOthis Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Im not sure if you bent the P/S line at all..or even moved it slightly...those lines are extremely touchy...example..I did a radiator and thermostat the other day on an 04 STI and all i did was bend the PS line out of the way a tiny bit...threw the rad. in and started her up to take her for a cruise..the PS was whining like theres no tomarrow...what i found out was there is a small o ring on top of the PS resevoir that ruptures somewhat if that line is even moved the slightest bit...obviously this lets air in the system....personally I would have def. replaced that little o-ring before purchasing a new pump....We see this ALOT.....Just mentioning for future reference...
