strainge noise on right hand lock

Recommended Posts

Been geting a strainge noise when in right hand lock. sounds like im taking a corner at 100. im sure its not my wheel bearing or brakes. it also will go days without doing it then come back. a friend of mine suggested maybe a fault with the power steering. if anyone knows anything that may be helpfull it will be appreciated.

Could just be a worn auxillary belt? I used to get similar weirdness, when putting full lock on my steering on my 16v when the aux belt tension was slack and just needed tightening up. Will also come and go depending on the weather conditions sometimes (moist air / dry air). On a day when it squeels on full lock just spray a tiny bit of WD40 onto the belt and see if the noise changes / goes away... if it does then time for a new belt or check that the belt tensioner is giving the correct tension!
