Ok so I know we have the hydro boost on our trucks so that is why I dont want to tempt fate on this one. As for my mystery when I was up north last week I saw single digit temps about 5 degrees f. I went and started my truck to move it out of the way, it started fine but I had no power steering and a growl from the pump so I shut it off checked the fluid to find it on the full line and smelling terribly burnt (I should let you know now that before I ever travel 200 plus miles from home for work I check all fluid for levels and abnormal smells... ect. it was fine when I left) I went back to the cab fired it up and I had power steering so I moved it and continued working thinking I would deal with it later on, well on the way back to my sleeping quarters I noticed a large pool of oil under the truck and yup its power steering and now I have none left so I borrowed my co workers truck went and got fluid in the morning and threw it in there worked for the day without problems and no leaks and when I left that evening untill I got on the highway I didnt have any power steering though I did have power brakes, when I got off all was fine and as it should be and as of this moment I have flushed the system and and all is good minus a minor growl under hard turns and my new fluid is degrading quickly (hence burning). Is my pump failing and where did the fluid come from it hasnt dripped a drop since, any help would be awesome and as always thanks again in advance.
