Default Whats that noice?

I could be the bushings in the front end have dried out or if it makes the noise anytime the engine is running it could be the belt tensioner.

the noice is not constant.... it happens more when i am turning, i can really hear it when i am backing up and turning at the same time... it does not make that noice on the highway for example when im going straight

Does it make the noise when you are turning the wheel while at a standstill. How bout when you push on the brakes? Reason I ask is if it was your powersteering, your brakes would be affected as well. We have a Hydra-Boost brake system, meaning it is boosted by the powersteering instead of vacuum assisted. Power steering normally makes a whining noise, not a squealing one. Sounds more like your suspension is the culprit.

It's your tie rods. I took my car in last month for the exact same thing. They bend some sort of way then they squeal and squeak.
