My Steering box has had a leak for some time now, I have another to refit when I get new seals fitted in it.
There is a slow groaning whining sound when I turn the steering wheel when starting up in the morning, usually gets better as the motor warms up a bit, but can hear it very clearly when turning at very slow speed.
When I say it has a leak it is a very slow leak as the fluid does not seem to go down to much, never had to top it up yet.
Checked today after a few weeks, it looked full but it is level with the bottom line on the stick. Will top it up tomorrow.
Would this small loss of fluid cause the noise or would it be somthing else in the steering system??
