Default Trouble Shooting Inquiry.

I have a 2013 RX 350 F Sport with two questions if anyone has had any of these situations happen?

1. Since the two years owned it has a weird grind/rubbing feeling on & off mostly on left turns, and from slow start. I've had dealers check, one says it is just the learning 8 speed transmission learning the 3 programmed seat settings, and then a mechanic (not from Lexus) told me it could be a front CV joint.

2. Between my RX 350 & my 2013 ES 350 UL the Mark Levinson system cuts out/in mostly on hot days and with am/fm/xm radios. I've read in some forums in Club Lexus that it could be the amp.

Has anyone else experienced any of these situations?

I can't help you with number 2 but on number 1, I hear a very soft click click or tick tick rhythmical sound when I'm driving very slowly and turning at the same time. I don't hear this when the radio is on. It's too soft and not grinding.
I don't know if CV boot on its way out makes this kind of sound that could get worse in time.
My theory is the power steering motor making this sound cause it almost seems electric in nature and it has remained steady.
