I don't think so but not 100% ruled out. PS fluid level is good, that much I know, and the whine doesn't change at all with steering movements. > Given the cult following, have you been able to find any forums that > discuss solutions to this problem, or is this a novel issue? Yeah some. The common problems seem to be a solenoid (which I've replaced) and belief in the magic Honda fluid (which is in use). Honestly I think at 213K miles it may just be at EOL given whatever likely minimal care it had before my ownership. But changing an external filter is cheap enough to be worth trying.
