On my 4520, I get what seems to be a slight squeak in what seems to be the power steering only when I turn the steering wheel to the right. I don't get the noise when I turn the wheel to the left and it dissipates as soon as I hold the position still and don't continue to turn. Any idea what it is or what to do to correct it?

I will check these point out. I presume the power steering is a separate system and not part of the hydraulic system. I have not otherwise serviced the power steering.

Do a search here on this subject. This has been reported on before. I think it's more of a noise in a bushing or something on the steering column than it is something in the PS hydraulic system. I have a similar noise in my 4520. I told the dealer to check it out last year when it was in the shop to replace the water pump and they said that they couldn't hear it. Obviously they had the stereo too loud in the cab.
