I have a 1995 Toyota Avalon, and I'm experiencing a problem with my power stirring. After the car is started and the stirring wheel is moved the slightest, the power stirring makes the same noise that's made when the stirring wheel is turned as far as it will go. I've checked the power stirring fluid level and it's fine.
What could possible be the problem?
Sounds like you drive a blender.
The power steering pump will make a growling noise if the fluid level is low, if there is a blockage in the system somewhere, or if the pump is failing. If steering effort is normal, then the pump may be failing.
Thanks for a good laugh, Truckdude! I had to take a second look at the subject line to understand. I wonder if the problem is in his stirring wheel?

Oh, go on Ray, break into a cyber grin :) I know you want to behind that professional exterior! hehe
I have been thinking about trying to get back into the business, having to pay to obtain, maintain, insure, and fuel cars is getting to be a drag :-(
Ray, thanks for the advise!
You're welcome!
