did you find any leaks from the ps pump/lines/etc?

edit* you said the resevoir was full.... I'm wondering if you have a pinched line somewhere.
I'm not going to rule anything out. I just hope that the dealer isn't swampped tomorrow and get me in right away incase they need to order any parts. I already paid for my hotel and park tickets so I really don't wanna miss my Vacation.

Edit: After a search for "power steering" under the problems forum I found 4 threads where other people have had problems with theirs, such as the hard steering at low RPM's which I have always had (and just figured was normal).

I 1st noticed it whining on Saturday, and really first noticed the stiffness yesterday. Today was the first time that it would jerk as I was going around a corner tho, like the PS was kicking in and out real quickly. I guess I'll let the dealer figure it out. Either they can bill Progressive if it's accident related or GM if it's Warranty related. I'll update everyone tomorrow sometime.
