i have a volvo 850 automatic and i have some questions:

1. the steering is REALLY loud whenever im driving and turn at all it makes a lot of noise..what is this and how can it be fixed?

2. the check engine light has been on for a very long time like 4 months and the car has been runnning fine..but today it started to blink and while i am at stop lights and the car is idling it is idling funny and accelerating by itself a little and it is on and off. how can i fix this? or how much does it cost to fix this?

3. my brakes only squeak when im about to be at a full stop..so when im coming down a hill to a red light i begin to brake and its not squeaky but when im about to be fully stopped thats when they start to squeak like when im going 10mph or under.
 
1. Add power steering fluid or replace the power steering pump.
2. Go to the Volvo dealer, they will scan for codes. It doesn't matter how well your car is running, there is still an internal problem. Or go to auto zone and they will scan for codes for free. I don't know if they will erase them though.
3. Brake pads need replacing.
