Power Steering Pump whining

What's up TL enthusiast I have a 03 TL-S and I replaced the PSP a while ago and I'm still having the whining noise when I turn my steering wheel but it goes away after it warms up. Any ideas on how to get rid of the noise ? Thank you

^I had the same issue here - I think it's the belt slipping when it's cold - then when it expands a bit and warms up, it grabs on better. That, or it could be a loose bearing.

get a bottle of bg power steering additive and flush it out. I had the same problem and after flushing in went away completely.

Do you really think BG is a better choice than MOC? jk. I am part of the MOC family and seeing BG caught my eye. lol. *side note - MOC & BG are big competitors in the service drive world
