That's what I was thinking but usually a belt squeak doesn't sound like a grinding.

it does when the fluid is really low..the car is cold..and you are at full lock..i mean that was from my experience..not a crazy grind..but its almost like a stressful grind or high wining. im guessing its that damicci...we are prolly on it...he should top off the power steering and let us kno.

Lucas had a formula that stopped my leak. But I'm still gonna replace something if it leaks again.

When your fluid is hot it expands and will make it seem like there is more fluid in there than truth. So you should top it off after the car has cooled down.

yea before starting the car just top that baby off to the top and you should be good..sit there for awhile because the fluids will lower slightly when it cycles or funnels into the hoses. and just top it off you should be good.
