Recently I noticed that when I turn my steering wheel I can feel what feels almost like clicks or something in the wheel.

But I can also hear some almost knock sound coming from the engine compartment (I assume the power steering pump), and the knock is at the same time I feel the clicks in the steering wheel. at first I thought it sounded like it was coming from the outdrive but when I opened the engine compartment I realized its not.

I checked the PS fluid and it was just a tad low. I filled it to the mark and still no better.

Is this a sign of a power steering pump going bad? Something else?


Much thanks
