Did you get the car? :D

The 8 does not have a power steering pump. It has electric power steering.

There's a connector that sometimes gives problems. I haven't had that issue with mine, so I can't give a first hand account of where it is, but it's somewhere under the coolant overflow tube. Which is what leads to most of the problems. Look for the connector and try cleaning it.

Try searching for "power steering connector." That should turn up orevious posts on the topic.
