Default Power steering pump...

gots a delima... 2 conflicting people say 2 different things.

I have this terrible / embarrassing squeek when i turn to the right. When the car is on (running engine) it squeeks bad when i turn to the right. squeeks from the right side when i turn to the left when sittin still but not nearly as bad. when i turn the car off it still does it. One guy says ball joint (which i had one replaced but the local garage probebly replaced the wrong one) and one says pump.

Dont think its the pump cause when its not turning (engine off)it still squeeks. I think they replaced the right ball joint but not sure. The 2nd guy also said maybe the tie rod ends but highlighly unlikely cause it dont squeek when itsnot holding a load...

any ideas anyone? please help...

Most likely a ball joint or tie rod end.
