noise in engine bay after 2nd gear romp

syxx07baru · 03-07-2008, 10:29 AM

As it says i flew thru 2nd into 3rd and all of a sudden it sounded like my motor blew. There is alot of squeeking and rattling/clapoping at higher revs.
My power steering is gone aswell i can barely turn the wheel..
It wants to stall when i turn the wheel at standstill.
Am i F'd or is it just the powersteering pump or something?
2007 sti 14k on it.
stg 2 tbe protune.
Thanks

Are the belts or pulleys damaged? Hard to tell unless you take it in somewhere.

It's tight in there. I see the alternator and that belt is on and moving.
Would blowing a rod /motor kill my powersteering?

You would notice a loss of power.
