hey i have the same problem mine is the rack. the seals arnt sealing and the boot filled up with fluid and bust open. but yours could be simple try some power steering conditioner first, then if not look for leaks, have someone look underneath while you turn the wheel back and forth while the car is running, you might need a lift or a pit for visibility cause everything is jammed in there. if you have wheels with big gaps look through them to the boot on the rack on both sides while turning this is what i did. if its a rack it will probably run you from 200 to 250 +core. luckily i have a hook up so i can get it for 135 +core charge, but i dont get charged for the core he trusts me enough to bring it to him. hope this will help.
