Grande Punto squeaky noise from steering

[graemecurran]

I have noticed a squeaky noise when I turn the steering wheel to park it makes it when I turn wheel both ways. The sound is not loud but annoying. U can't hear noise when driving its only when I slow down to park or sitting still. The power steering is working fine and hasn't cut out.

Im no expert and could be totally wrong but, I had a similar problem where it squeaked and made mad noises when I turned. It turned out to be a cracked spring. It cost me £60 to get repaired.

Hope this helps.

No had the spring on the passengers side replaced three weeks ago. It sounds like something that needs oiled if u no what a mean.

Hi,
turret bearings are relatively common,
so is THIS..,
undo the column lock and move the steering/column wheel through it's range of ARC, ( UP and DOWN) several times, then re-lock in a central position,
see what that does,

I have a squeek on mine when steering. Have you lowered it at all? If so check the stabelizer links/ drop links. As the rubber on mine has worn. Apparently this is quite serious? -.-
