These problems have nothing to do with each other so please start a new post about the overheating issue. We will handle the power steering leak on this post, most of the time when the power steering leak it will be because the pump or high pressure hose is leaking, you need to fill the system up and then start the engine, use a flashlight to see if you can find the source of the leak, this guide can help. Please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see.
