The infamous steering whine...

The infamous steering whine...
So, when i got the car i had to replace the high pressure horse. Replaced that, car worked fine for several months until i got the steering whine. Thinking my pump was going bad, i replaced it only to find out the whine continued.
Ive flushed the whole system and used dexron 3 A/T fluid and bled the system properly with no success. Ive checked for any leaks; rack and pinion, the pump are dry and the fluid level has been the same for months now. Checked all the hoses and vacum connections as well.
So, does anyone else have this infamous whine and tried all kinds of things to fix it with no avail, or has a fix? Im getting irritated by it.
Thanks.

when you say the pump was dry are you referring to the exterior as in no leaks or as in there is no steering fluid in it? I replaced my high pressure hose a year ago on my wife's maxima and the car doesnt have the whine noise your are describing.

I do have an aftermarket high pressure hose but i replaced it long time ago as soon as i got the car and i did not have the whine when it got replaced.
