noise when steering

When Im in the car with the motot running, if I turn the wheel slightly but quickly from left to right. I can hear a clicking noise that seems to be coming from the steering wheel. It is very faint, and if there is any other noise, like the radio or trafic or someone talking you can't hear it.

Any ideas?

In the last six months I have done the lower control arms, the idler arm bushing and the stabilizer bar links.

You might want to grease the coupling inside the engine bay. It is located inside the engine bay where steering column appears from inside the car.

Hey Jybute, I just got my car out of the shop for that noise with the turning of the steering wheel. They replaced my airbag because of a rattle in the airbag and when i got it home it did that noice when i turn right or left. I brought it back and the adjusted the coil spring cartridge/control unit.(replacing coil spring unit) so hopefully that helps!!!! good luck rob
