My power steering has been squeaking when I crank the wheel left or right, although it occasionally squeaks just after I've started the car or when the steering is under a bit of a load.
The fluid is fine. My dad's suggestion was to check the belt tension, could this lead to it and would it be a valid reason? TiA! -------------------- 2019 M2, 2005 S2000, 1997 4Runne

Got my belts today and I found this in another topic....
"unhook the return line, put it in a bucket, pull the efi/htr fuse and crank the engine a couple times. put in new fluid, empty the bucket, crank a few times. do this till it runs clear. now put the return line back on and then fill the reservoir. start the car and turn the wheels back and forth, then top the fluid. take it for a drive with lots of turns, top the fluid if needed. " So I am going to try to change my fluid tonight too.
