Power steering noise?

[Anonymous]

OK, next question!! Any ideas on how I can fix the noise what I think is coming from the power steering pump? Well Im pretty sure its from that as it changes when I turn the steering wheel.

Its the same noise as what I got from my subaru after messing with the power steeing and the pump was being starved of fluid. It only does it when its cold, just wondering if there was a common problem. Ive checked the level of the fluid and it seems ok?

Any ideas would be great thanks??!!

If the oil level's ok and the belt tension is ok there's not alot you can do. You can rebuild the pump, but it won't be cheap. I'd be tempted to ignore it. I've just had a power steering pump fail on me and a new one is £400 from nissan. I managed to get a 2nd hand one tho.

apparently it's one of those winter noises. It'll probably be gone when sumer rolls round.
