04' Disco Whining during Acceleration and Stearing

Couple days back, my '04 Disco with 103K miles started making a louder whining/ higher pitched humming during acceleration. This sound was substantially worse while making right and left turns. In fact just moving the wheel a bit seems to make it worse. Yesterday, after the truck was warm, the sound went away completely. It has now returned.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!!

Thank you!

Pump is leaking at a nice pace. Thanks for the tip. And yes my driveway is an array or an assortment of many different fluids over the years! Replacing this weekend!

Thanks again!

I'd also check that the reservoir screen is not all plugged up. Replacing that fixed mine.
