The reasons for abnormal noise when turning the steering wheel to the right but not to the left are as follows: 1. Issues with the power steering fluid: If the fluid level in the reservoir is too low, air can enter the hydraulic system, forming air resistance in the oil pipes, which can cause mechanical wear between steering components and produce abnormal noise; 2. Power steering pump failure: When the power steering pump makes abnormal noises, it indicates that the pump is damaged and needs to be replaced. Additionally, check if the drive belt of the power steering pump is slipping. If it is slipping, identify the cause and replace or adjust the belt tension; 3. Damaged top bearing of the shock absorber: If there is abnormal noise when turning the steering wheel, check the dust cover of the front shock absorber and apply grease to the top of the shock absorber. If the noise persists after applying lubricant, the top bearing of the shock absorber may be damaged and needs to be replaced.
