When I put the car in reverse and with my foot still on the brake. I turn the steering wheel usually to the right. I hear and feel this crunching in the steering wheel. I know my power steering pump is starting to go its starting to whine but this has been doing that since before I noticed the PSP staarting to go. I'm wondering if its the pump, Rack and pinion, ball joints, ti rods, cv joints or what any ideas would be appreciated.
