Greetings
When I start my car for the first time in the morning i can easily turn the wheel all the way in both directions. After the car is fully warmed up, the power steering gets stiff. Its only stiff if im stopped though. If i am parallel parking, the wheel is almost impossible to turn, but as soon as i press on the gas, it loosens right up.
whats going on?

Check your power steering fluid level? Any belt slippage?

How do i check the fluid? I dont see a cap anywhere under the hood. Its a 2004 GT2.
No belt slippage btw

Not familiar with the engine bay in those. It has to be in there somewhere. I tried googling for an image but can't find a picture for your car that's good.

Its kind of under the alternator. If it was low on fluid you would know, the pump would make noises.

Best way to check it is to.. climb on top of the engine on your knees and reach down IMO.

Don't dry steer?
Its a great way to kill the pump.

Your pump is bad, had the same symptoms on my green car. Morad has decent pumps or you can get one from RockAuto and save 5%
