Sometimes, after i've gone round a corner this weird sound appears, a very loud whining sound which won't dissapear until i stop the engine and wait a few seconds.

Its definately to do with the powersteering as when the sound is there, the steering goes all heavy and feels like somethings grinding when i steer.

Could the pump just be knackered? but why would it only do it occasionally?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
