There are only three places to loose PS fluid. They are the pump, the rack itself, and the plumbing. If the leak is not obvious, then the rack is the most likely problem. Check the boots for any signs of being oily. Squeeze them, if any oil is inside, the rack is leaking.

My power steering fluid level declines about 6 ounces ever 2000 miles. I assume this is not normal. Any advice on the most likely location to find the leak?
