Check your P/S fluid level first. Then check the feedline from the reservoir to the pump for kinks.

Thanks but yes I have done this and it's fine

Almost sounds like a pressure relief valve issue

How's the brake power-assist?

 

[devin 31]

The breaks are almost the same trinity they have a little whining and they are spongy if you know what I mean! Is there a valve to release pressure

 

[trinity_gt]

Has the power steering hydraulics been opened up recently? Did the fluid ever run dry?

It sounds like it may just need bleeding but there may be a fault in the power steering pump itself.
