Hey guys...

As you can see, I'm brand new to the site and just tryin to get some questions answered bout my car...

Wanna make sure everything is alright with it (just bought it).

Anyway, when the car is at a stop and I turn the steering wheel from left to right, and right to left, I can here a lil clicking noise. Sounds like its from the under the dash. I can also sometimes hear it when I'm turning at a slow speed (in parking lots) or going over a speed bump..

Do any of you know what that noise can be? Anything major? Anything specific I should look for?

Thanks!

There may be something rubbing against your steering shaft. Try jacking up the front of the car, and removing the panel under the dash. Turn the wheels back and forth to see if you can trace the noise.
