Strange noise when turning right sometimes
Once in a while (like once or twice every month or so) when I turn right at slow speeds, but not from a full stop I get a brief noise (it lasts about 1 second). It is clearly audible but not load. It sounds like a coil spring unwinding or an soft phone ringing or sort of like a tape measure being released but clearer. I think it is coming from either the radio/ac area or the shifter area. It will do it a few times and I can not make it occur except on those drives were it happens. Then if I keep doing right hand turns sometimes I might get it to make the noise once or twice with say six turns. Then it goes away for days, weeks or months. It does not appear to be a function of outside tempurature or if the car is hot or cold.
Other than this the car runs fine. I am mostly curious as to what it might be.
