we just bought a 2001 Aurora and it started doing the same thing......It is a common problem come to find out and we had to replace the intermediate steering shaft. I think it cost us approx. $250 to have it done and solved the problem!! Good luck . If you haven't solved your problem yet email me at TRStot@aol.com and put AURORA in the subject box so that I don't delete it. I can send you instructions on how to do the job yourself for a very few $$. Also I had a clicking noise on my 02, took it back under warranty and they changed the upper bearings in my front struts. Cured the problem. Also I did have the intermediate steering shaft problem and had it repaired under warranty. Came back after about 25K miles. Still living with it. Just had heart surgery and can't tackle the job yet. Hope tjis helps.
If the 1996 Olds Aurora will not start and there is a clicking noise from under the front panel, check the starter. The clicking noise is probably from the starter solenoid.

The reason for this may be a problem in the gearing, or a bearing going bad. It may also be caused by something simple as having dirt inside the tracks of the moonroof.
