Hey guys Just wondering what may be the cause of this screeching noise that i get when I try turning the steering wheel when the car isn't moving (but on). LIke when I tried to adjust to park, it made this loud screeching noise that sounded almost like a loose belt. Only happens when steering though.

Lil Help?

 

Hmmmm......

Look at the belt maybe?

 

I checked them over a bit ago and they seemed fine. Why would steering cause a belt to go loose like that (if thats even the problem to begin with) Never makes the noise when going straight or starting up. I noticed from other cars that it seemed like loose belts make their infamous scream when the car is started up or goosed a bit.

 

When you turn the wheel there is an increased load on the power stearing pump. That could cause the belt to slip. Also check to make sure you have enuf fluid in the reservoir for the power steering.

 

ah ok I see now.

I'll give it a second look over today. I'll check for the power steering reservoir.
