94 PA chirping from steering column
I just bought a 1994 Park Ave yesterday. My first Buick. Great car but there is a chirping sound coming form the steering column. It happens pretty consistently regardless of the condition of the road. When I turn the wheel, it feels like the power steering is pulsing or pumping into operation. For 2 seconds it feels fine, then loose, then fine, then loose until my turn is complete, with the steering wheel jumping slightly during the turn, making me think I need to compensate. (But I think the car is actually following the turn correctly).
Any Ideas? EDIT: The chirping is actually a quick squeeking. Last edited by bedpan; 08-29-2006 at 05:22 PM.

Re: 94 PA chirping from steering column
Could be a belt slipping or a power steering pump going bad! I had to replace my PS pump recently, some of the same symptoms. By the way, welcome to AF!

Re: 94 PA chirping from steering column
Actually it seems to be coming from the door hindge or the fender.
I will replace the fluid in the PS pump and see if the steering gets any better. But I no longer think the sqeek is related. Thanks.
