2006 Subaru Forester Power Steering Fluid Leak

This 2006 Subaru Forester was bought to our Ann Arbor import auto repair shop with an oil leak and noisy power steering.

Diagnosis

An underhood inspection by our Subaru specialist technician found the power steering fuild level was low and the power steering pump was noisy due to air being drawn into the pump. The vehicle was lifted on the hoist for an under vehicle inspection to find the power steering fluid leak. The high pressure line from the pump to the steering rack unit and the return line were leaking.
