Today the car started making whining noise as I drove out the gate. It seems to be the PS system. There's a leak somewhere, oily fluid deposited on the belt and wheels and dripping onto the ground. Immediately parked the car up before more dmage is done. I hear a rumour this is a common problem. Any suggestions as to the nature of the problem and likely cost of repair? Can I scream at the garage that I take it to and ask for a manufacturer covered repair? Based in Dublin.

Thanks in advance for any comments
