I have a 2006 Chevy Silverado 1500 Crew Cab 4x4 pickup it is making a noise when I am turning. It makes more noise when I turn left rather than right? What could it be? My power steering fluid level was a little low but I added some and my level is fine?
Thanks

 

What does the noise sound like? If it is a clunk then it is more than likely your intermediate steering shaft.

 

I agree with Grumpychevy, If its a clunking you feel in the steering wheel when you turn the intermediate shaft is seized. The dealer will remove it, grease it and put it back in. Take my advice, I had this done once and it lasted for about 6 months. There is an updated intermediate shaft, It was just under $400.00 for the repair but it has been fine now for the last 6 years. The dealer was not aware of the updated shaft when I called them, I found the info on line and had them order the new shaft.

 

I bought and installed the new intermediate steering shaft from Napa for about $70 and it took me less than 1 hour to change with only a few hand tools. This is not a hard job to do. Next to jamming myself up under the dash, the hardest part is getting the seal around the shaft back on the firewall and sealed back up.

 

Yes it it a clunking sound/feeling in the steering wheel. Thanks guys.
