    Little more information would probly turn some results, What exactly is the problem? when is it happening? Any mods? etc etc
    From what i gather i would say you have a milky fluid in your power steering Res. If thats the case your cooler has probly taken a poo on ya...

    Yep, sounds like the power steering cooler is bad causing coolant and power steering fluid to mix.

    The power steering cooler is the big aluminum thing in the upper radiator hose.

    flushed everything but the gas tank haha and it is still doing it so i am guessing that the ps cooler is bad and might have a blown head gasket since i do not have the power i used to and there look like there is brown in the radiator with the ps fluid =(
