unusual sound when turning the wheel
guess i just now noticed this sound while pulling out of the driveway tonight. seems like when i turn the wheel either direction i hear a "cherp, cherp" sound. i tested it just sitting in the driveway turning the wheel to both sides and it doesnt happen in a certain spot just randomly and inconsistently while turning the wheel. im not sure when this started happening or if its something concerning. anyone think they could diagnose this with the information given? dont want something little to cause bigger problems. thanks alot

well on concrete its more of a scraping sound than a cherp. take a look make sure your wheels have no play in them. also check for play in the steering wheel (before you jack it up) you could be due for some new power steering rack bushings if you have a god amount of play.
