Popping When Turning

Popping When Turning
My Monte is low miles, under 7000. When I turn the wheels while driving I can feel like a slightpopping in the the steering wheel. It feels like it is coming from underneath in the front thru the steering wheel. It is the only front wheel drive I have ever owned and wonder if part of this is the front wheel drive feel vs a rear wheel vehicle?
I would rather ask on here than to take it to the dealer and have them take the car apart for nothing.I welcome any input on this subject.

Google intermediate steering shafts . They've had all kinds of problems and not so good fixes. I hear that they are "supposed to" have a new one that wil fix the problem - I'm waiting to see if it does. They say it's not a safety issue.
Anyone know if the new ISS has a grease fitting?

ya my 04 seems to click a little when i turn it while sitting still and the other night i came out of a stop sign from a right turn and when i straightened out i booted it down and when the rpms jumped up i felt a pop in the steering wheel... possibly the same ISS issue? maybe i should take it to the dealer too while its still covered but they never can find aything while they have to pay to fix it, you know how that is but the day your warranty is up you've got 1300 bucks worth of parts they say you need

RE: Popping When Turning
I have observed a pop on my 03 for a year or two now. I had it on my lift a while back and noticed that when the wheels were turned left to right that the boots on the rack and pinion for the tie rods would pop as they expanded and collapsed. I think that the boots are starting to dry out and becoming brittle. Just my two cents here!
