325 cic Stearing Problem

[Joe Damico]

2001 - 325cic -- getting a rumbling noise when I turn the steering wheel, think it may be a fluid problem. But, don't know where steering fluid reservoir is located -- can anybody help?

I have a rumbling/creeking(kinda) sound as well and im pretty sure it's a dry balljoint. Being plastic, they don't creek quite the same as a metal balljoint would if it were dry. So, have a friend listen @ each wheel as you steer (parked of course) and which side it's coming from. You may be in for a new control arm.
