Well, I just had to have my power steering pump and one of the high pressure hoses replaced due to leaks. Now, ab out 4/5 days later I am at my moms and I hear the REAL loud whining of the power steering system (like when there was almost no fluid) as soon as I start the car.
I open the PS fluid tank and look in, it looks like it is a bit foamy, VERY milky , and bright orange (like a creamsicle).. Not the color or consistancy that PS fluid is supposed to be.
Any thoughts? I'm going to have to take it back in tomorrow and be like.. FIX IT.
Anyone know what could cause this or possible solutions?
THanks
