Powersteering Whine?

[Kgolf31]

I've been noticing this lately when I autocross, only when I autocross.

After a hard run, I get a whine from the engine bay (Which I assume powersteering). It disappears soon after I grid, but I don't know if this is a common noise to experience.

Video showing it:

The whine is the most right after I finish, and turn past Mobie.

Thanks!

Under initial inspection...i dont even have a PS cap.

This isnt good.

It appears there is some fluid in the tank...but did i cause and damage to the system? I dont know how long this was like this

Its common for the ps fluid to overflow with hard driving, just gotta keep it topped pff. Havent you been follosing this forum?

Never heard of this.

I'm calling BMW today to see what they did during Inspection 1.

Would overfilling (aka BMWs problem) caused the cap to basically blow off? I can't find the cap at all, maybe BMW never put it back in.

Arg. Looks like I get to flush the system this weekend.
