Power Steering Groans on Left turn - not Right turn. 850 1996

posted by  someone claiming to be Patrick Hartigan on  Tue May 18 11:07 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Hey all,
I've checked the fluid levels, recently had an alignment, new tires (not rubbing), water pump and timing belt. All that said, I'm ruling out a bunch of problems. The problem I'm having is that when I turn the wheel to the left, even slightly, the power steering groans as if I was turning the wheel way too far. The noise is similar to that you would normally hear when you over steer. It does NOT do this on a right hand turn. Again, all of my fluids are fine.
Has anyone heard of this? Is it simply in need of a new part or two? Which part(s) and how would I fix it? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Patrick
