- Dirty Filters - Many mechanics have replaced the rack and pinion steering system claiming it is the fault. It appears that it might be dirty filters in the power steering fluid reservoir. My mechanic thought it was an air leak getting into the system somewhere.

Had a whining noise that sounded like an alternator bearing.
Was told it was due to the power steering pump being low on fluid due to a leak from the rack and pinion. Told that if I did not replace the rack and pinion, the power steering pump could be damaged due to low fluid. Repair cost over $1000.
