That growling noise is something to watch for.
There are several reasons why your power steering pump may be making noise and the most common is that your fluid level is low due to a leak in your system. This is typically either a power steering hose, your steering gear/rack and pinion or the pump itself. Many times low fluid levels can damage the power steering pump due to a lack of lubrication. This is why taking care of a seep or slight leak is important before it causes more damage.
