What you're describing sounds a lot like a worn or damaged CV joint. Check the half-shaft and see if the boot is intact or if grease has leaked out. If the boot isn't perfect or if you can see any grease that has been thrown from the boot, the CV joint is toast.

Why does the steering wheel make noise when turning?

If the car is running at idle speed while you are turning, the power steering pump has to push a lot of fluid with little power. If it sounds like a slight creaking, then it's normal. If it is a high-pitched squeal, then the serpentine belt may need to be tightened or replaced. Either way is not that big of a deal. If it is a grinding noise and you can feel a jerking motion as you turn the steering wheel, then you have a serious problem and need to take it into a mechanic.
