Default Wierd noise from the steering wheel when i turn it. what is it????

There is a wierd noise comming from like under my feet when i turn the wheel in any direction. It makes like a Rubbing sound for like 1 sec then stops then i turn the other way and it does it again. This problem start just recently and i think it could be because of the cold weather. Any ideas on what this noise could be or wut i could check????
Oh I also have a spare tire on the rear left tire could this effect it??

THANKS..

checked your power steering fluid lately? Maybe it's your differential gears

check the tension on your power steering belt or like bubb said you might be low on power steering fluid

cheers

Is the sound a clicking like sound or rubbing. If it is clicking then it is most likely the CVs
