Subject:Steering whir (not vanagon or VW)

Hi,

My wifes Saturn is making a very very vaint, yet definite 'whirring' sound
when you turn the wheel in either direction.  Ive had a bad pump in my
vanagon, and this sound is completely different..very quiet.  I topped off
the PS fluid two days ago, yet sound still exists.

Anyone know what what this might be?  Early pump failure?  Dirty pump
filter?  Something else with the steer system?

Thanks in advance.

Jeff
