Default Power steering issue

Ok, so as long as I've had the car, the power steering has been weird. At first it would feel like there was no PS whatsoever unless you gave it gas, no matter what gear, even in neutral. I finally got around to replacing the power steering pump and when I did the PS worked for about 5 minutes before not working at all, not even when I gave it gas. So I drained all the PS fluid and put in Audi PS fluid. The PS worked for about 15 minutes and then stopped again, any suggestions?

You must have air in the lines. It should self bleed, but maybe not. Auditech should have a better answer.
