Hello.. My power steering pump in my 2006 impala lt3 is now whining and it just like started doing it, I checked the fluids and they were good, any suggestions on why this is happening.

Also I have a antifreeze leak some where, and it is leaking all over the engine, I would think that it would not be the water pump because it is an 06 but i could be wrong, I just changed the top hose. should i change the other hoses as well?

Welcome to AF, a pressure test will pinpoint the leak and eliminate guess work. Verify if the p/s pump is the noise by seeing if the noise is worse turning the wheel or using a mechanics stethoscope, other things can cuase this noise.
