Unhappy Steering Mkaing Strange Noises

Hi Guys

I have recently notice slight groans from the steering when turning, it's not a constant problem just know and then it groans like its rubbing on something.

I have tried the fluid and it seems fine.

And my stock rims are on at the moment aswell.

Any Ideas

Thanks

Neil
