WHEN: Whenever you rotate the steering wheel all the way to the left or right steering stop and hold it there.
/ Q/ d& |9 I y" S5 I2 FWHAT: The pressure relief valve inside the pump is dumping excess power-steering hydraulic fluid back into the reservoir. It's supposed to do that, although maybe a little more quietly.
