Hi kedar,

What car are you driving?

Is it with power steering?

Was anything done prior to this happening?

Did you check the tire pressures?

I am not familiar with your vehicle and need to know the following.

1. What noise are you getting?
2. Where is the noise coming from?
3. Was the complete steering rack replaced and with new or used parts?
4. Was wheel alignment performed after replacement of parts?
