My convertible has developed a weird groaning/humming from somewhere under the hood, and it seems to be related to the steering.
-It only happens when the car is cool or cold, not when fully warmed up.
-It only happens when I turn the wheel while moving in reverse.
-It doesn't happen then backing straight up or if I turn while moving forward.
This is an e36 rack, the fluid is full and fairly new. It sounds like it could be related to the pump, I'm not sure what else would make such a loud humming noise. But I'm not sure why it only shows up during this set of circumstances.
Any ideas?
