Power steering whine.

[alex4twenty]

Getting a whine when I turn the steering wheel after start up till everythings warmed up, only started the other day when it got colder? Although that could be a coincidence. Anyone got the same? And is it likely to be a problem?

Cheers

Check your power steering fluid level. Depending on how bad the whine is it could mean the power steering pump is on its way out.

Totally forgot about this, level is fine and the steering is fine too besides the noise, but the fluid is pretty dirty going to try giving it a flush and see what happens.

We have the same in the EP3 sometimes.
It's caused by dried out rubbers.
