Power Steering Fluid Leak... Help!
Hey, I noticed that my wheel was whining when turning a few days ago, checking the power steering fluid level and indeed there was none in there. Picked up fluid an topped the reservoir up and within 2 days its empty again. Quite obviously there is a leak but I dont know where to check first. Reservoir?, Pump? Hoses and Lines? Anyhow right now im just topping it up about every time i take it out but ive got to get this fixed. Not much of a mechanic, would finding the leak be easy or should i take her in? Also, do I need the power steering? Was thinking if its cheaper and not entirley necessary i may cancel it out. Again, no clue on how to do this either?
I did notice that when filling up the reservoir the overflow is a red colour but the stuff im putting in is clear????? HElp

The rack is leaking. Refill it again. Jump under the car and have a friend turn the wheel when the car is running. U should be able to find the leak. Its up to u whether u want ps or not. I took out my pump and left the rack in and just plugged the lines. I dont really mind not having it, in some instances it sucks.
