Yesterday, I went to a autoshop and replace all the both side front brake system (pad, rotor and caliper), however today I heard a little noise from my steering wheel when I tuning the direction
any idea why?
Thanks

What type of noise? If it wasn't there yesterday, before the job was done, then I suggest you go back there and ask them.

^ excellent advice.

You paid for the service and if you sense something is wrong, take it back.

I correct it is squeaking noise, I find some early thread discussed this, seems I need to lubricate some where?

Yes, lubricate where the steering shaft reaches the firewall, on the bottom driver's side near the pedals. I posted about this a few days back.
