    Power steering pump noises

    Hey guys I just noticed that my power steering pump appears to be making a sort of chirping noise when idling, It does speed up slightly if you turn the wheel at stand still. It's not the loudest noise in the world but I just wondered what could be causing it? Do you think it needs a fluid change or is this normally a sign that the pump is on it way out?
