Today when fitting my new intercooler pipe the one which i think the vaf sensor plugs into?? anyway befor doing that i unpluged one of the power steering hoses to make things easy lol, this made the fluid drain empty. After refilling the power steering the pump now makes a noise when i turn left or right its louder when am station???

Know it sounds daft but will this go away after a few drives or do i have to bleed the system or somthing??

Thanks Rab

Here, there and everywhere ;)
Sound like the pump is trying to fill the system, generally running the engine and turning the steering wheel from lock to lock will pull the fluid through.

Keep an eye on the fluid level whilst doing this.
