the forenza has a defective Power Steering pump design. we have an '04 and we are on our third pump. the bearings at the front of the pump go out. our third pump is already starting to make the noise, and we only have 10,000 miles on this pump. complete junk (it has been a great car otherwise 105,000+) oh also the factory new pumps run as high as $500-600. if you can find the rebuilt ones they run $100-200. there is only one company who rebuilds them, and the last time i needed one they did not have any to rebuild. so i went new.

What causes power steering pump to make noise on 94 Toyota Corolla?

If your power steering pump makes a whining noise as you turn your steering wheel your power steering fluid reservoir is probably empty. The noise is caused when your power steering pump tries to pump fluid that is not there. This indicates that you probably have a leak somewhere in your power steering fluid lines. You can either try to find the leak or simply replace the power steering fluid every so often.
