Power Steering going out need advice
I have a leak somewhere on my power steering. It is NOT over my alternator. I know for sure when I turn the steering wheel it sprays all over the floor, (Drivers side) it has become a HUGE problem now, before it was just a drop now it sprays. I cant go a week without refilling the reservoir.
So Should I just replace the entire unit? When the car is cold and starts there is this annoying squeeking sound, the bearings I guess from the powersteering pulley or something. I dont know pulleys. And I am figuring out everything has to change right, anyone can confirm?
The pulley and reservoir need to be replaced or is it a hose?

Sounds like a hose to me.. jack car up, get under it, clean all oil/grease off with a rag, have someone start car while looking with flashlight, find your leak. If u don't see it before it gets everywhere turn car back off wipe everything down and repeat.
Mine was a hose.
