leaks leaks leaks, PS pump
I just noticed that my power steering pump is losing fluid for some reason. I think it is the PS pump because its getting harder to turn. I don't know if its a hose or the pumps shot, but I was going to get a new pump but if its a hose or something please tell me. Im also getting a leak from what looks like the oil pan and something else(3rd pic). I think the 1st pic is from oil pan and 2nd pic from power steering.

That looks like engine oil to me, but i guess it could be picking up the gunk as it drips down.
As for it being the pump or hoses, only you will be able to tell that. we dont have magic x-ray vision to check around under your hood for you.
if its the pump it would be coming out of the shaft seal on the front. if its a hose, well, it will be leaking from the hoses or connections.
BTW, the second pic looks like your trans, if its leaking there it could be the RMS leaking.
