I get an annoying creak when turning the steering wheel. Most noticeably when parking or turning the wheel at low speeds. What can I do to rid my car of this?

Is it just from turning the wheel, or from turning the wheel while the car is moving?
If the former, there's something going on with your steering column. Replacing the bushing in the column might work, or cleaning up and re-lubing or loosening and re-positioning the universal joints in the column. If the latter, the tire is likely rubbing on one fender or the other. Fixing that requires changing tires or wheels, or some work with a BFH or roller. --DD |
