Default steering noise anybody?

hey guys,

i got an '07 Si sedan and I noticed lately that turning from center to the right i hear this whine type noise. nothing metalic. swapped out the outer tie rod but noise is still there. when turning to the left from center i do not hear anything. went over to someone i know that owns a garage and he told me that it could be a dry bushing or something.
next time i have it on the lift for an oil change i'll check it out spray any bushings and see what happens.

anyone with this little annoying problem?


thx

Have you checked your power steering fluid levels? There is no fluid to check! It's electric! I'd say your rack is bad

Is it a creeking noise that seems to be coming from the steering wheel? My girlfriends 07 makes a creaking noise.

I think this is a chronic problem that might be covered by your warrrenty if it's still in place. Good luck!
