2006 Subaru Forester Power Steering Fluid Leak
This 2006 Subaru Forester was bought to our Asian import auto repair shop in Ann Arbor with an oil leak and noisy power steering.
Diagnosis
An underhood inspection by our Subaru specialist technician found the power steering fluid level was low and the power steering pump was noisy due to air being drawn into the pump.
