    Mines a little bit noisy, but it doesnt really bother me. On most cars a power steering additive does help . I think its the Slick 50 one I have used in the past to good effect, but I believe that Forte also do a good additive. They basically rejuvanate the seals and the pump bearings.

    Try bleeding the system, Haynes tells you how, and checking tyres, low pressure or tread can cause extra noise.
    Failing that, try changing the fluid.
    Otherwise its new pump time, which isn't cheap or easy.

    Try bleeding the system......take the p/s fluid cap off and turn your wheel from lock to lock then put the cap back on.

    If that don't work try new fluid / additive
