Steering wheel easier to turn when parked under sun

Hey guys,

Just wondering if a part could be failing if my steering wheel is much easier to turn when the car has been sitting under the sun. When parked in the garage or not under the sun I definitely notice the steering wheel is slightly stiffer and harder to turn.

Feels like it has always been kind of like this, but just really put the two together. Before I have it looked at I was wondering if anyone has any input.

I'm thinking the heat from when parking in the sun is causing some worn seals to expand and allowing for greater pressure in the system. IDW. Have about 120K of which 65K are my own.

Thanks!

I've never heard of this before, I would flush the fluid and see if there's any change. Pretty good chance you have 120k on the same power steering fluid.
