Name that noise
#1
No, really, it's making me mad. Sounds almost like it's the steering rack, but it only does it under fairly decent amounts of steering movement. No noise when the wheel is held still / cruising / etc. Groans like hell when cranking the steering wheel (but not consistently through the entire motion, just some of it), but minor lane changes and corrections produce nothing. Sounds like it's coming from just a bit to the passenger side of the car at the front.

Rack? Linkages?

You guys are going to make me shoot a vid of it (for the sound) aren't you?

Help is appreciated. I've never heard this one on any of my other Foci.
