Default Steering

I have a clicking sound when I turn the steering wheel either left or right. It only happens after being driven for a while and I can feel something catching as I turn. You only have to turn the wheel a couple of inches either way and it happens. 1996 coupe. thanks for any help.

sounds like your rack is going bad. the clicking could be from the pistons binding or a valve problem in the rack.

There was a post concerning this problem a month or so ago. Quite a few Forum members experienced it. My 95 does it only from the straight position when I turn it left or right appx 1 inch. It's annoying but I haven't noticed any further effects from it.
