I have a problem of my car steering, every morning when I start to drive my car I heard sound & vibrations when I turn the steering both left & right specially when the engine is still cold, specially this winter season. And the steering fluid is falling down from left side of the rubber boot. Is it possible to change the steering kit? Or any suggestions regarding this problem please?

The noise may be the power steering pump caveatting due to lack of oil, the steering rack end seals have failed and the rack will need to be removed to be over hauled, this is not possible in the car. If the pump is let to run dry it will be destroyed as well.
