UPDATE--12-30-02

The dealership just called me, and they said that its normal for the steering wheel to do this. Does anyone else have this problem? I never noticed this knocking sound until about 2 weeks ago. I told the dealership this, and he said they looked at other vehicles, and it had the same noise. He also said he contacted Mazda about it, and they said it was normal, and not a problem. This sounds fishy to me, can anyone give me recommendations/comments. Thanks in advance.


I am bringing my P5 into the dealership for the 1st time (car is about 1yr2mths old). I have a squeaking problem when I turn the steering wheel clockwise. It also has a knocking sound when the steering wheel is turned clockwise, then released. This sound tends to be alot louder when Im making a U-turn. Anyone have any ideas about this? Im hoping the dealer figures out what it is.

My guess is that you either have something loose or that you have air in your power steering system.
