Just replaced the power steering pump, due to a bad bearing, l replaced the fluid with valveline PSF SYNTHETIC because l couldn't find the PSFIII They called for because it was weekend and its only available at the dealer. Before l replaced it the power steering worked fine it was just bearing noise, after l replaced it the steering is really stiff at idle rpms but when I accelerate it whines and loosens up, any idea what this could be?

Did you properly bleed the system?
