Squeeking noise while turning

[dieseldan723]

MODS: If this is the wrong forum I am sorry, please move if necessary.

There is a squeeking/moaning/groaning noise that comes from under the hood when I am turning at slow speeds. Mostly seems to happen when turning to the right.

Any ideas?

Intermediate steering shaft. Common problem since 2001. I went through 4 in my 04.5 and I'm already on my second with my 07. And since mine's been replaced, it groans now too.

Thanks. Does this cause any problems if not fixed, other than irritating noise?

While turning the wheels or while holding it turned?

I had cv boots squeaking, went away eventually.

Sorry I have been out of town for a while and hadn't checked the fourm.

It's getting worse. Happens when I turn to either side and mostly at slower speeds (under 10 mph)

Now it sounds like a really high pitch squeek, kind of like brakes do sometimes. It happens when I am going slow and turning. Braking or accelerating do not make a difference.
