Power steering problem



  clio williams, Ph1 172


Just noticed today when I checked my power steering fluid today that it looks like it has been leaking onto the top of the plastic reservoir. I cant see any cracks in it or anything. I noticed my power steerin was a bit noisier today. I checked the fluid and it was a bit low so i topped it up and it quietened it down. Any ideas where it could be leaking?
 


Yeah, dont worry not a problem, just check it every so often.

The caps have a small hole in the top. it comes from there.

OK cheers :D I worry about little things. I know the cars had 2 new power steerin pumps and a new rack since I got it and when it got noisy I got worried. I topped it up right up to where the weird liney bits are inside and its gone loads quieter now so im happy. Ive noticed its leaked before but it doesnt seem to lose much. Not topped it up since ive had it and i got it beginnin of feb.

Are you meant to change this fluid often? When serviced etc?
