I'm getting a couple of nasty sounds that I think are coming from the PS system. It only happens when the motor compartment is hot. Generally it wil squeal at idle if I heat soak the car by letting it sit for 10 minutes after a hot shut down. I noticed the PS tanks was slightly low (about 3/4" below full) so I bought some CHF11S and slightly overfilled it. Didn't help much if at all. I tried sucking fluid from the tank with a turkey baster and filling with fresh but not much help either.
I pulled the access panel behind the seats and started the motor when it was in the heat soaked condition and I think it's coming from the PS pump but I can't totally rule out something in the same area of the motor.
I also get a little squeak/hiss sound, like pressure bleeding down in a hydraulic system when I shut off the motor in hot conditions. I can't rule out the Tip. The car doesn't like a hot engine compartment even though the fan works at the right times. I had some cooler weather last week and no funny sounds at all then.
