Ok i know its a stupid question but when i give full lock on the steering wheel I'm getting a slight squeal
im hoping it might just be a slipping belt but thought someone might know if the power steering pump makes any noises if it's on it's way out

Thanks in advance

Could be pump if it's only doing it on full lock. Easy enough for a competent mechanic to diagnose. Otherwise it's most likely the belt which is a cheap and easy fix.

mine made this noise, was already diagnosed belt. started off with what sounded like noisy cams. my mechanic tightened the belt which made is go worse. started off screeching when i started it up and was even worse with the cold weather, when parking up at home it would make some noise on full lock. ended up changing the belt myself after reading a post someone added this week with a video of how to change the belt.. piece of ****.. all sorted now, no noise. old belt was in a bad state, cracked and even a had a split running through it. 2003 blob sti...

Id ssay it was a belt the colder weather can have affect mines done it and i only changed two months ago, probably just needs slackening of a touch

Similar to mine & it was found to be the power steering pump, changed the belt at the same time.
