Default I've got a groaning sound coming from the front of the car when I'm turning at slow...

speeds. Typically when the car is cold. I replaced the control arms about a year and a half ago. Could it be power steering? Any ideas? Thanks.

It's not low fluid, checked it and it's fine. Car made no noise today, so I don't know what it is.
