noisy power steering

I noticed noises when I drive my car, especially when I drive slowly during parking the car. I assume that this is power steering problem.
Can I drive the car to a mechanic?

If you're driving a CL, be aware that the power steering pump is "shared" with the ABC (hydraulic suspension system) pressure pump. Big black tank on driver-side fender is the fluid reservoir for it. Check that fluid level right away!! BIG trouble running the ABC/PS pump dry.

Best maintenance practice is to flush the ABC system periodically. Is the fluid green or black? That's your cue for fluid replacement.
