Default power steering whine/hum

94 Audi Quattro

Lately it's been running kinda rough with the engine noise louder than normal, and I'm hearing a whine whenever I make a full turn of the steering wheel. I'm interested in any kind of feedback or diagnostics thoughts, or any suggestions that will keep my baby rolling smooth.

If your runnin the pentosin, I'd recommend bleeding all that crap out, or as much as you can anyways, and dropping ATF in there.

You may want to check your engine mounts. The drivers side seems to rub for some reason. The way I checked it, is by going 40 and turning slightly to the right...the noise would seem to decrease or disappear. Just something worth checking. Cheers.
