Ruby, 92 L03 overpowered wagon that she is, has developed an interesting 'moan'. It seems to do it more when you drive her, stop and get back in. I can't figure out if it's the power steering pump (recall it was leaking like crazy on the High Pressure hose and fixed) or something with the brakes or suspension.

When you start it back up and then make a turn it 'moans' a bit then stops. I told the boy keep an eye on things with regards to fluid, but she hasn't lost a drop since we replaced the hose last weekend. I'm wondering if the pump is on it's way out now Sad

air in the system. Rotate lock to lock often and watch for foam and fill often until it works its way out.

^ what he said
Could be air in the power steering system.

Does is moan while in park and turning the steering wheel? or does it moan when making a turn when driving?
