Exclamation Powersteering even worse

So, I posted a thread about my powersteering a while back, but no one was able to help me so I ignored the stiff powersteering and kept living life.
Recently my steering has been ridiculous. I've noticed that when Idling, the powersteering is extremely hard to steer. But, when I add a little bit of gas, voila, powersteering runs smooth. As I've noted before in my other thread, when I turn the steering wheel all the way left and right it makes a buzzing sound. The sound only occurs when I reach the max point in which the steering can't turn anymore.
.... Any ideas on why my powersteering is being an A hole?

that buzzing sound is normal, all cars have it. but the stiff powersteering is a problem that you may want to have it checked.

How many miles on your G?

Me and AJY had this same issue earlier this year... we both bled the hell out of our systems even though no changes had been made, and I did a complete flush and refill with more bleeding that only helped a little bit... eventually our issues just went away after long periods of driving (I did a one-way trip of 850+ miles with a semi-stiff wheel back in June and the issue went away and never came back). Not sure what AJY did, but check out this thread for more info:

How is the pump pressure? Perhaps it's time for a new rack...

Isn't the power steering speed sensing? Sensor?
