Pwr Steering Pump Whines like Sprchrgr
Hope I'm in the right forum. My power steering pump is screeming like a super charger. It has plenty of fluid and drives ok. Any ideas would be appreciated!

I'm in the process of replacing mine now. The toughest part is getting the pump off the motor, but with some patience, it's not that difficult. If I wasn't lazy and didn't get up so late and didn't have to run to the parts store twice for a pulley puller then I would already be done.
This is the second time the PS pump has been replaced in this car. The first was while I was still under warranty, so the dealership took care of it, but unfortunately my steering rack has a small leak where one of the hard lines attaches near the middle of the rack. I've got to see if I can fix that without replacing the rack. If not I'll just have to pay more attention to the PS fluid level since the rack itself works fine.
I think my pump was like $50 plus core for a reman?
