Mine makes a noise when turning the wheel with the engine off as well. Once the engine is running that noise goes away so I guess the noise is normal. Has anyone else had their steering rack replaced with the newer number? While I couldn't find any recalls related to the steering rack I did see that realoem lists several revisions to the part with older part numbers deprecated ("ENDED"). The latest was dated 7/13 but it wasn't the part number that walendvay referenced.
I'm taking my car in tomorrow to see if I can coax them to at least take a closer look at the steering rack and do some internal research on the issue. Hopefully the end result will be that I get a new steering rack. If that doesn't fix it I will settle down, file it away under "Idiosyncrasies", and get comfortable with notion of joining the Porsche, Audi, or Land Rover families.
