I fixed my problem--it was a stopped up vent hose coming off the power steering reservoir cap. Apparently, the blockage interfered with the pump's ability to supply additional fluid and pressure on demand, causing the pump to cavitate and thus, the "growl" I was hearing. When the cap was loosened, the noise was immediately relieved and the hose was checked out. The hose was routed to the wheel well and accumulated road grime but is re-routed away from the wheel now. |
