WHERE: Front of the car.

WHAT: Water pump bearings.& ?1 m8 L2 q K; \$ f6 ~9 a
URGENCY: When the bearings fail completely, the fan will pull forward and slice a nice big smile-shaped chunk out of the radiator, making it leak profusely.

; k' e n" F. v/ ?5 K* QWHEN: Whenever you rotate the steering wheel all the way to the left or right steering stop and hold it there.$ D; Y0 g1 r& ]) F
WHAT: The pressure relief valve inside the pump is dumping excess power-steering hydraulic fluid back into the reservoir. It's supposed to do that, although maybe a little more quietly.6 U3 b% @& d4 m) e6 \
URGENCY: No big deal.
, S7 T+ Q& O" {FIX: It's normal. Actually, you should check the level of power steering fluid in the pump. Don't hold the wheel hard on the stop like that; it annoys pedestrians and is tough on the belt./ j" g1 ^( D! G* r, y

WHAT: Belt squeal. A loose or glazed belt, bad tensioner or misaligned pulley.
