My 2004 IS is making some pretty mean powersteering sounds...I replaced the fluids, and its still loud as hell....when I bought the car, it had the steering wheel at a 90 degree angle. It is a salvage title car, but everything checked out. Im wondering if anyone knows if this is the reason for the premature failure of the pump (car has only 50k on the clock) and if anyone had a power steering pump that they would like to sell me!

thanks again, this forum rocks!
