    Angry Wheel vibrates when I push the gas pedal and car moaning when turning in sharp

    This has gotten pretty unbearable over the past week or so. The steering has become a bit heavy, and there isn't much return to center when I make a sharp turn. Nothing seems to be leaking, and I recently put in a new steering rack since I thought that was the issue, but the moaning still persists. I'm about tired of dealing with it, so I've decided to post about it here. I'm thinking that it's something to do with the power steering maybe? I could be wrong, but I'd like to get some thoughts from you guys. Thanks

    Is the reservoir topped off? The moaning is likely either a bad pump, bad high and low pressure lines or both. This will also happen if the fluid level is just too low. I have the same problem..i just keep it topped up every once in a while

    Yeah my fluid level seems to be the culprit. I've topped it off and my steering feels significantly better. I must have a leak in one of the lines that I didn't catch, so I'll be keeping my eye out for that. Thanks for the info man, your suggestion has seemed to solve my problem (for now at least)
