of course.... weeks ago i fully flushed it with 1 quart and replaced it. It was easy to diagnose that P/s pump was making the noise. Remove the serpentine belt from the car. Run the car and you will find out whether or not it was the pump-pulley from the P/s pump
relax, it takes 5mins

Great find thanks, my car isn't listed under the vehicle fitment with that pump though.^^ Just changed my serpentine belt when I changed my belt tensioner and guide pulleys last month. I keep thinking... would I have to replace the gasket for the reservoir when I switch it from the original pump to the new one, or can I just reuse mine? If this part fits , I am ready to order and do this the upcoming weekend, but I am pretty sure that the part above does not fit (looks like 400$ pump it is). More garage time woohoo

I'd recommend you get a new o-ring (aka gasket) and a new lock pin. New o-ring is only few bucks. If you re-use the old o-ring and it starts leaking after replacing the pump, then you will have to empty the reservoir and replace the o-ring. Go ahead the replace the o-ring.
