Default Anyone here noises when turning the steering wheel shortly after starting?
When I pull off after the car sits all night, I hear noises when making turns. Could I be low on power steering fluid? It seems to subside after a while, but I can still hear these noises after I've been driving for about 5 or 10 minutes. They are just not as loud as when I first start the car. Again, I only here these noises when turning.

Default Yeah, mines' doing something similar. Actually, I think it's only when the A/C is on at start-up.
Checking the power steering fluid is probably a good place to start.

This happens when I don't have the A/C on as well. I guess I better check the power steering fluid.

Default someone has gone through a couple power steering pumps...
Helps the life of it if you don't crank the wheel all the way all the time.

I hear these noises during normal turning, without cranking the wheel all the way.
