i have the same problem, due mostly to camber and toe though. are you lowered at all or have any suspension mods?

its is slightly lowered, but this just started now in the 0 degree weather here in wisconsin, it will happen at a dead stop too, when it warms up the pump actually pushes against the wheel as I turn it and will have random chugs of steering pressure. I dont know if some hoses are leaking or if the pump should be replaced

Well now its worse than ever Cant even hardly drive it, quite sure its the cv joints, the rubber boots crack in the cold and dirt gets in there making the clicking noise, but with mine it was so loud and violent I thought it was gonna SnaP! so I cut the power steering belt which helped. I think Snow Ice Salt and Sand got in the driver side bad!, sometimes worse, somtimes better. damn snow...
