Power Steering reservoir leaking, possibly from a high pressure issue?? Resulting in PS Oil leaking on the Serpentine Belt causing slippage and has come off once already. Other problem appears to be a wobble of the Air Conditioning Pulley, resulting in A/C not cooling. Combo of problems it seems. Looking for a ball park estimate for repairs before I take her in. 235,340 miles.
It sounds like your dealing w more than 1 problem at once. Leaking PS pump seal may be faulty ( due to other prob), Have the pulley problem repaired first, new belt then PS pump. all problems must be addressed together. All effecting each other
Power steering pump shaft seal is leaking, You can add a table spoon of DOT 3 brake fluid to the steering fluid to condition the seal. The A/C pulley wobble is a compressor clutch bearing problem and requires the correct puller to replace. Replace the clutch as a unit, to avoid messing with the bearing. Replace the belt if the steering fluid leak stops. If the brake fluid trick does not work, replace the steering pump. Parts and labor will be better than 200.00

First check your PCV system and make sure it is in good working order this is a must. Then check the cam sensor or oil sending unit, it is located between the engine and fire wall under the exhaust manifold.

are you holding it at the end of the power steering travel? this can cause the squeal, also is the belt more than 30,000 miles old? is it an OEM belt.
