Ive noticed that when I take right turns I hear/feel a kind of groaning coming from the right front side of the car. Any ideas what this might be?

 

Ummmm...check the power steering reservour lately?

 

sounds like your power steering fluid is low

 

check steering fluid level and condition first

 

I do a lot of moaning and groaning when turning since my steering rack is almost shot. If its not the power steering fluid level, maybe your rack is gonna need a replacement soon.

 

Check for dying hooker in wheel well.

LOL.

Steering rack bro. Check it!

 

if it happens when your steering wheel is fully turned to the left or right its normal. i just experienced the same problem and took out my steering rack last week and cleaned the solenoid screen(search for it) and took out the p/s reservoir and cleaned the screen on the bottom of that. i had so much dirty fluid and metal shaving that look like glitter blocking the fluid from flowing freely. add a quart of new synthetic atf fluid
