Pretty sure if it was just fluid issue, he'd be getting that annoying sound.

Likely a pump or rack problem. Does it get softer when you rev?

Sounds like a steering rack issue.

Is there fluid in the steering pump oil reservoir?
Are there leakages sound the steering rack or on the pump or the pipes?
