Power steering problem
Just dropped it of the dealer. Heard a noise from serpentine belt the last 2 days when I start it in the morning
Metalic noise that goes for 30 sec then is fine
Mechanic said I need a new power steering pump but he wants to look at it in the morning (I had a video)
Anyone had this problem?
Truck is a 6.7 with 2000 miles
Pump takes a week to get in

Will see. It was only making noise in the morning when cold for 20-30 seconds. They said yesterday that they receved the parts. Hope it's okay because Friday I need 4x4 (going hunting)

My '07 has made a noise at startup since it was new, in cold weather anyway. The noise lasts between 5 to 30 seconds. Kind of a shriek/howl/grinding noise, when the temp is below about 25F. I always assumed it was the alternator, until someone mentioned the PS pump as the cause.
I purchased the truck 11/06, been driving it 11 years, the noise doesn't get worse and the power steering still works as designed.
