When I turn left or return from left it makes a wierd whirr no matter how fast I turn it. Power steering pump is good fluid is good rack is new. Are there any things in the column to grease or lubricate? Maybe my intermediate shaft rubs on the plastic housing but it sounds like its right where the steering wheel turns.

My car has had a light zipping sound when turning the wheel for 150K miles at least that I've noticed it. It's slightly louder than a mosquito sound. Nothing has happened to mine.

If yours is a lower pitch then it's different.

Thats sounds just like it. Its more of an annoyance then. Least nothing needs fixing.
