WHEN: Whenever you rotate the steering wheel all the way to the left or right steering stop and hold it there.; H" S! o& @4 K3 o
WHAT: The pressure relief valve inside the pump is dumping excess power-steering hydraulic fluid back into the reservoir. It's supposed to do that, although maybe a little more quietly.

WHAT: Belt squeal. A loose or glazed belt, bad tensioner or misaligned pulley.' p$ A' ^- |4 |$ N7 E

: \4 {% c; |/ J1 O- cFIX: Check belt tension and pulley alignment; replace the belt. |
