Hi,
Noticed some difficulty steering, my power steering reservoir was dry. I filled it with STP power steering fluid. Steering was initially much smoother...
Now it is making whine and hissing noises - at the start and end of the video clip - when cranking the wheel all the way.

It looks like the fluid level is dropping again so I suspect a leak. Also, it looks like a small amount of bubbling in the fluid when I look in the tank. Anyone have a diagnostic write up for power steering? Do I need a particular fluid?
