Power steering question

I cant figure this one out... When the car is cold, say first start of the day the power steering pump makes a right noise, like the fluid is low, then it turns the fluid to pink froth and pushes it past the cap. But when its hot its fine.

The level is correct and the fluid is in good condition. Any ideas? :blink:

Need's to be bled and topped up mate. I have this as a running problem on mine due to the PS system leaking somewhere (and I can't for the life of me find the leak!)

 

Start the engine, leave the PS fluid filler cap off and turn the steering wheel lock to lock about 10-15 times slowly. Then top up the fluid as it will prob be low. I just do it by eye, don't bother with the measuring stick.
