Default Cold startup...steering wheel pump makes alot of noise

goes away when oil heats up...this is a problem? doing damage? Also, what temps should I not go out with my Kumho 712 Ecsta Supra tires?

Default Hmm. I've been noticing a loud servo motor like noise in the...

...mornings after starting my car. It goes away after about 5-10 seconds.

Sounds like I better check my power steering fluid. It's special fluid, right?
