Shutter and Growling
[New to the forum and I have a question. I have a 06 LS2 coupe and when I am at a stop in neutral ,I put my foot on the brake and turn the steering wheel there is a shutter and a growling noise. Took the car to the dealer ( another story) and the replaced the rack and pinion did not fix the problem . they then discovered there was a bulletin stating that one of the hydraulic hose was to small to handle both functions at the same time,there would be a fix in Oct 06 Any one else run into problem? I love the car.

The hose does fix the steering shudder, and yes it may take until oct. to get. This happens on Auto trans. cars when in gear at a dead stop, or parking lot type turns. Have not heard this on a man. trans. car yet. Updated hose material and a longer hose.

Hi,
I have noticed the past few days that when I get off work, get into the car, crank it up, drive of, turn steering wheel either to the right or left to turn, first there is a thumping/knocking sound, then the grinding, almost power steering kind of noise.....but I don't get the noise or thumps while driving, and cornering, only at drive-off. Also, I have noticed dark grease on rear fender, both sides, as well as front quarter panel. I am getting some jacking pucks, and off to the dealership she'll go. I can tell something is not right, and hopefully it won't be too long of a issue, but something is wrong, I can feel it. Will keep you posted.
