If you hear a grinding noise when your turn your wheels left or right your CV boots could be ripped and need replacing.

If you hear the noise when the vehicle is not moving, perhaps you're low on power steering fluid. When air gets into the power steering pump, it can make a grinding / whinning kind of noise, esp when you turn the wheels and esp when you're not moving.
