It may not be related to the work you did, have you checked the power steering fluid level?

No I havn't but its not that type of groan, its more a of a squeak/ creak from rubber. Sounds like bad bushings on a control arm.....but they were replaced and it does sound like its coming from the top of the shock tower. I havn't opened the hood yet to give a listen. V

Maybe spray a litle lubricant on the suspect bushings. If the noise remains... hmmmmm. Good luck.

Absolutely no squeaks after PBBlaster injection. Great tip as the squeaks were driving me nuts.
