Well every car I have driven with power steering makes a noise when at maximum steering distance and are moving. Now if it is whining all the time then check the fluid level and the belt.

yeah come to think of it, every fbody makes a popping noise that ive been in, when turned all the way. I comfirmed this by asking my alignment guy and he said when it makes that noise ...stop and and turn the wheel the oppisite direction a half turn so it wont make that noise
