so my car is making a terrible creaking noise from the steering colum....left front area of my car.....like a old door creaking.....everytime i turn the wheel.....creeeeeeaaak......go over a bump.....creeeeeaaaak......haha u get it.....so ne guesses?......struts?......but if its that y does it do it when im sitting still n turn the wheel......

 

the area where your wheel spins is probably dry so WD40 that sucker. then again, i'd personally wait for a professional opinion before i'd do that.

 

OH SNAP!!! Hey man mine did that nosie i know what you are talking about it was my lowerball joints i heard the nosie for one week and then all the sudden outta no where my right frint broke out and i almost wrecked. I would take your car to the delar to get the lower ball joint recall done if not done so already. if u have the new ball joints disregard my opinion and goodluck with the creeeeeek...

The balljoints could be a problem, just had mine replaced for same reason, especially when i'd crank hard one direction. Then it was really noticable. Also it may sound dumb, but hell.....check the powersteering fluid(I'm sure you've already dont that) but what the heck ya know. That was also a problem of mine. I'd suggest using a seal if it's surprisingly low.

Good Luck
Thanx

ttt?

 

yeah... always wondered... what does ttt mean? anyway, there was a site listing a number of recalls on various vehicles, all makes. it was a synthetic oil site, if you find it, i would appreciate the link. i can't find it anymore. but... there was a large number of complaints on the dodge vehicles of the mid to late 90's regarding the power steering. apparently the factory fluid is to blame. they have since switched to something else. the avenger wasn't listed, but the sebring was. odd, i know. i have never changed any of mine, but i did lose my dakota's power steering pump and a buddy is losing his in his ram. in my gf's van, the steering would creak like fingernails on a chalkboard. only turning left and only when cold. replaced the power steering pump, and it all went away. not saying that is what is wrong, but just relaying the possibility.

 

Ah, "ttt" = to the top

 

Does it mean to the top of the page, or is it slang for something.. Ha.
Kind of a dumb question.

 

Yeah, "ttt" is a way to bring the thread back to the top of the page without really posting anything but the letters. This way the thread gets attention. Although, I'm not really sure why it was brought back up, lol...Pappi?
I think he was looking for an answer from the original poster to see if he has done anything yet and to see what it was that fixed his suspension noise. Is that right Pappi?
