strange sound....

took a drive on sun to hit some back roads. noticed some tip of "ticking/buzzing" sound when turning. stopped to check if maybe something rubbing from tire to fender well or mud flap> took a peek if maybe something caught on front axle boots. then i thought it was probably brakes.

Well, on my way back home i noticed it was doing it at low speed turning rt or left and narrowed it to steering components. When i got home i turned steering lft rt without full lock and i could hear what sounded like belt maybe?

i cant find power steering level check anywhere on steering pump

is this common or is my steering pump or rack and pinion goin out???
noticed next day that i will hear it when i drive for quite a while

power steering level is not on the pump. I suggest you read the owners manual first.
