    5th generation prelude steering noise

    I have a 99 Prelude that i picked up for 12,500 last friday. it only has 40k on it but when i turn the car on and first start driving and turn the wheel it makes a faint binding sound coming from the front wheels. it only does it once throughout each ride and it isn't very loud. also after i park the car every 5 minutes there's a humming noise that lasts for only a few seconds coming from around the fire wall on the passenger side. any ideas? I know this isn't a 3g but you guys have always been helpful.
    one of my 88 lx's is up for parts. good engine and transmission. pretty much everything is there. the fenders and hood are bad but other than that it's pretty good.

    RIP my beutiful 5g coupe. May the villans rot in hell!

    no it seems to be generated down toward the tires more.
