Have this noise (sh, sh, sh...) when turning at low speeds (in a parking lot for instance). It's more pronounced when turning right and it sounds like the wheel rubbing the fender apron (it is not). There's no play in the hub either. Had it jacked up and the wheel spun. No noticeable noise: Maybe it's because it only shows up when the bearing is under load? Any ideas?

did u check the power steering fluid levels or u might need to spray silicone in steering shaft right behind the break pedals

Tks for the input. P/S fluid level is OK, no leaks. Also it sounds to me that the noise (in this case) is coming from the drive axle or wheel bearing, not from the steering system.

turning right loads left bearing and would cause it to make noise. if noise on right when turnig right I'd think more axle.
