Sometimes when I am sitting still or going slow through a parking lot or something and turn my wheel, I get a low pitch noise. It seems to be worse when I am sitting still. Sometimes I can give it a full turn and it will make the noise the whole time I am turning. My car is a 2000 model and has 60,000 miles on it. It is not the tires rubbing, it sounds like something rubbing that is not greased or something. It is a pretty loud sound. Any ideas? Thanks!

My Camaro did a rubbing noise starting around 3,000 miles. It had never done it before until one day I was parking and every time I would turn the wheel it would vibrate really bad and make this rubbing noise until I stopped turning the wheel. Did it nonstop in foward or reverse and again when I left, but after a minute of driving it went away.
It would do it while backing up making slow turns for like a half second and then stop. I never found out what caused it, but it wasn't as bad and it hasn't been doing it recently.It was just strange how it never did it until it did it really badly repeatedly one day, then just did it occasionaly after that. I think it might be heat related. The only person I've found who had a similar problem was DravensBird02, and when he was having the problem the weather where he lives was similar to what it was here.<a href=\"http://webpages.charter.net/camarov6/Car%20Pics/New/IMG_0085.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Black 2002 Camaro M5</a>-SS takeoff muffler, B&M Ripper, K&N Filter, 35/20% tint, Infinity speakers, Viper alarm, perpetually breaking clutch return spring mod. 15.49@90.15<br /><a href=\"http://webpages.charter.net/camarov6/Car%20Pics/P14.JPG\" target=\"_blank\">Pewter 2002 Firebird M5 (Dad\'s Car)</a>

Check the line going to the pump for leaks. I had the same thing and it turned out to be my line leaking... much cheaper than replacing the pump :D1997 silver Camaro RS<br />|T-Type Powered|<br /><a href=\"http://www.kwfbody.com\" target=\"_blank\">Looking for a local F-Body club in K/W, Ontario, Canada?</a>
