So recently I bought a 99 k1500 suburban and yesterday morning the steering had a slight whine. Upon checkIng the reservoir it had not one drop of power steering fluid in it and I had been driving it perfectly for 4 days. (Bad ik ik)
Upon adding more fluid to the correct level (while engine cooled completely; and proceeded to get air by cutting the wheel each way ten times, when starting and repeating) it got me to town and back bout and hour worth of driving and I parked it. When I went to leave for work my power steering was completely out.
I do have some leaks I’ve noticed need addressed but today I checked the reservoir and it had no fluid again but my steering turns like a top?? Any thoughts as to why this is? Can air bubbles through the line or overfilling temporarily inop the power steering?
