Front main seal replacement cost

That sounds like the power steering pump. I would stop by a shop and have them listen to it to confirm.

If it is the pump, I would start by having the power steering fluid flushed out. It could be dirt or debris in the fluid causing the noise.

Okay, have them check it first. A flush may take care of it.

Okay.

There is an upper jacket bearing you cannot access. If the noise is at the top of the steering wheel, the steering wheel and lower components have to be removed to access.

If it is the lower then you can spray it from the outside.
