after a couple of months if having my car, when i turn my steering wheel to the left or right it made a cracking/rubbing noise that was irritating. it wasnt when i was driving at fast speeds rather just like parallel parking or just making a turn after a stop....so i took it to the dealer i bought my car from and they said the re-greased my steering column and it hasnt made the noise up until yesterday....i was wondering if anyone else had this problem and knew what the actual problem is...i have an appointment on Friday so we'll see what they say and do this time around....

 

is your wheel house maybe ripped somewhere that it comes out a little bit from the front? Or it is completely in place?

Just throwing an idea out there...

 

not its in place

 

mine used to do this. not anymore. it may be ur powersteering pump

 

^ did it just stop making the noise and you never had it checked out or did you fix something to correct it?

 

Well i heard it for a while then I was like... f it.... n I sold it. Ha but yeah usually if you look in the wheel wells and there's no rubbing marks its probably gonna be ur power steering pump

 

well a dealer by my house found the problem and it has something to do with my power steering and what not so they have to replace the whole thing at first they said it will run around $1000 b.c i have aftermarket suspension but when they realized it was TRD they said it will be under warranty......im gonna be out of a car for a day or so but whatever....as long as it gets fixed....

 

just shhh about the swaybars

 

thanks for your non important input

 

is it really loud? are you able to hear it when you have the radio on? And it only happens on meli-smooth surfaces? It's the tires. It's just the rubber skipping acorss the surface.

 

no its not the tires at all.....i have to drop it off at the dealer on thursday they're replacing a whole bunch of stuff i will be out of a car for a couple days
