Power steering noise when cold????
 

In the mornings I have a loud humming noisewhich is worse when I turn the steering wheel. When the car is warmed up this disappears. There are some other creaks and groans when I move the wheels at very low speed first thing in the morning aswell.

Does anyone have any ideas????

have you checked your fluid???

its your fluid for sure man. my car did the same thing for a while. go to the store and get some Pentosin 11S i believe. check your fluid level first tho. i'll bet you its low. this also means u might have a leak.

and the leak is usually on the hose that meets the reservoir, or the pressured hose that meets the steel cooler line in front of the A/C condenser.
