Just to follow up:

Replaced my steering rack but am still hearing a kind of grinding/whining noise that I’m positive is coming from the steering. Oh well lol… I guess some things you just have to let go.

To recap, I’ve had two new LuK pumps (and a used one before that) and have changed fluid and reservoir multiple times now. Running car without serpentine belt = no noise. Running car with shorter belt to bypass AC = same noise. Alternator also new.

Sooo, that leaves only power steering. Anyway, this is kinda a separate issue to this thread, but I did post a few back about replacing steering shaft (worthwhile) and rack (probably not).
