Default Rubbbin Noise....

I am getting what seems to be some sort of rubbin noise coming from my car (front). This happens when I am parked on a street and leaving for work in morning. When I turn my wheel And slowly exit out of parkin space. Its a loud obnoxious sound at 1st I thought maybe power steering fluid. My second guess was left control arms but it doesnt sound like it.


Happeneds whenever I turn wheel left or right. Any other ideas?

Could also be the steering rack - pray it isn't.
