Question problem with power steering...

When I turn my steering wheel to either the right or left, my car makes an awful vibrating or light grindage noise that seems to be coming from the front of the car. I checked my power steering fluid level, but that seems to be ok. It didnt start doing this until after I got it back from warranty work on the transmission so I don't think the pontiac place hurt anything or forgot to put something back on the car. I was wondering if anyone might diagnose my problem and have a simple fix before I return to the dealership for them to have a look.

My Z only does that when stationary. Fat tires are hard to turn and strain the systm when not moving. Some noise is normal, but not the way you describe it.

yeah, I know what you mean when you say it does it while stationary, but this is definatly louder and it does it while moving. I really dont know what to do except take it back to the dealer. I dont want to do that cause they had it for a week while working on the transmission and I just got it back, now im gonna have to take it there again. Oh well, it needs to be fixed though.....
