Hey guys,
I have a problem that I think is due to a faulty ps pump, but I've heard a few other opinions too. I was told it may also be the bearings in the PS pump. I am not 100% sure so maybe someone can give some suggestions or opinions.
The car makes a VERY loud whine as soon as the car starts and until it turns off. It's pretty loud at idle but I think it gets even louder while accelerating. With the hood up, you can narrow the source of the sound to near the ps pump area. The car steers fine with no problems and no hard struggling. The noise may alter a tad when turning the wheel but stays pretty much constant. The belt was replaced recently because the old one was worn out but it was not destroyed. The old one was atleast 2 years old. The noise is not present when the belt is removed and the car is ran.
Here is a youtube video of the car running:

Any ideas?
