Hello, I have been having very stiff steering and and a whining sound from my steering and the brakes are similar. Does anyone know if you can bleed the Hydro Boost :ford: or if there is a Video on it. Thanks

The hydroboost unit uses the same fluid that the power steering uses. If you turn the steering wheel from stop to stop a few times, any air in the system will be removed. If you take the dipstick out of the power steering pump reservoir, you can look at the fluid. It is not foamy, you don't have any trapped air.
