About the other sound. it's obvious that other engine oil cooled cars don't have the sound we have. my only novice explanation is the sound mite be normal and the bigger PS cooler just magnified the sound of the normal operation of the power steering, Or there mite be a stress on the Power steering it's self from the added cooler.
I'd put my money on this being the issue....Oil coolers don't make noise, Power steering pumps do....Much like you describe, especially when low on fluid.
