i know i have a 96 z34 and that's what i thought it was and what a local auto repair guy thought it was...until he got looking at it....on mine it was the bearing on the AC compressor...hope that helps
AnswerTurning the steering wheel causes more tension on the front of the Power Steering pump and in turn cause more tension on everything else the belt turns, e.g. a/c compressor, alternator, even a bad bearing in the idler and tensioner pulleys.Wiki User
