Best Answer

Power Steering leaks require repair. First the leak needs to be isolated. Leakage points include the pump assembly, high and low pressure lines, pump-line-cooler fittings, the cooler itself, rack and pinion unit, and the reservoir. Once the leak has been isolated the failed/damaged components can be replaced definitively stopping the problem.
