Default Steering Noise

Took My C6 In For Noise When Turning Steering Wheel Left Or Right From A Stand Still Sounded Like It Was growling Bad Pump Or Low Fluid, Fluid Ok I Was Told It Was Normal On A Automatic Trans, Gm Told Kerbeck Service Dept. Not To Do Anything, Noise Was Normal For A C6 With A Automatic Trans, but,the noise wasn't there when I bought the car, so Bull!!!!! Totally disatisfied I realized I bought my first "Lemon" and My First Vette Maybe My Last!! Being totally dissatisfied Kerbeck at my request is bringing in a GM tech Kerbeck's own service managers don't think it sounds right but they have to go by GM orders not to do anything!! C6 Orders and owners With Automatic Trans "Beware" Ask Questions!!!! Noise Is Really Noticable Inside And Out! People do Look!!

Sounds like the powersteering pump is going. Take it to a different dealer then.

I assume your not talking about making noise when you have the steering over at lock? That is normal but I would guess most folks would know that. Sounds like you need to go to a different dealership as AU N EGL said.
