creeeek

driving in my 240 today, on gravel roads and such, and when i came to a stop sign, i stopped and turned my steering wheel a bit. then i heard a creeeeek' sound when i turned it. what you think it is? power steering seems just fine, just as good as it usually is, but its never made that creeeking sound before.

Re: creeeek

it could be possibly the CV axles, on a car i had once it did that. When ever you turn the wheel it makes a squeking or creeeking noise. not sure but that may be it

it could just be the damn rubber on the back of the steering wheel rubbing against the plastic/rubber piece on the steering column. my old 240 squeeked too, and that's all that it was.
