Tackled first job on the list today, noisy steering. Had air in the system and fluid looked burnt or dirty at least. Replaced the o-ring on top of the pump. Changed the fluid. Tightened the v belt just a touch. Sounds and feels fixed. Was experiencing heaviness at standstill with any wheel in any sort of rut or bump. Also very whiny. All seems fine. Love it when costly bits are not goosed. 👍🏻

Sounds like there is still air in the power steering system
You need to turn full lock to
Full lock with the fluid cap off
Until the whining stops

The heaviness in the steering could also be associated with a clogged power steering hose
I would replace the hose also if not already done so
