What power steering sensor is it?
So I've been tryna research why the power steering gets so stiff when the car is not moving and it seems to get stiff when there are no RPMS being pressed. It honestly is getting real annoying as sometimes the car is a pleasure to drive with easy to then steering then randomly it gets stiffer. It's mainly noticeable on parking and u turns since you don't press the gas mainly while doing that. Now I thought it would be the PS Pump as with most cars but doing some searching it seems it's a Power Steerong Sensor? Anyone know what sensor? I tried searching and couldn't find the name. Hopefully someone who had this issue can point me in the right direction I really wanna fix it. Thanks CL!

I just checked and it looks on the light brown side. It's supposed to be red right? I'm gonna change it tmrw to see if that works but I think it's something else because I noticed when I have power mode on and I drive aggressive it's much easier to turn the wheel when parking as if the aggressive driving makes the pump flow better. When I drive slower I feel like the steering gets firmer. Sound like the pump? Also any specific way to change the fluid that's better then others like a flush? Or do I just drain and fill? How exactly does the ps fluid get changed I only ever added fluid doesn't look like you can just drain it out
