If you check in the manual for the car it will tell you the correct power steering fluid as there different grades just like with engine oil, i don't advise just sticking in what you fancy, might not do it any good. Have you checked the fluid as well? you can check it's level on the stick attached to the lid. It might be the power steering pump on it's way out.

Thoroughly check for leaks then top-up with ATF.
