When making turns (02 KJ) at low speed and while breaking I can feel a slight vibration through the steering wheel, and can hear a 'buzzing noise' which sounds like it is coming from the front end somewhere. Usually happens more predominantly when the engine/car is cold, more so on cold days, like we have had more recently... The problem is intermittent. Thoughts/diagnosis on what it could be or what I should look for? Don't you just love 'sound gremlins'? |

Have you rotated the air in the tires? No, really you've got me. I did see a girl today with a safety cone stuck under her car but I am guessing you would have caught that. I am sure the guys will help, Lost guys are the best. |

LOL, no traffic cones under there...!!! Thanks for the responses so far. Will have my mechanic check it out next weekend, and report back. I have a feeling it is just the cold weather acting on the power steering fluid. |

UPDATE... Finally popped the hood, and checked the power steering fluid reservoir and it was low, so I topped it up with ATF+4 and now everything is smooth as butter. nice.... |
